Answer from AI

To create ER diagrams, I use several tools depending on the task and team preferences:

  • draw.io (diagrams.net) — a free and user-friendly online tool with support for exporting to various formats.
  • dbdiagram.io — a specialized service for quickly creating diagrams based on a simple DSL.
  • Microsoft Visio — for more formal and detailed diagrams, especially in a corporate environment.
  • ER diagrams in IDEs — for example, in DataGrip or DBeaver, you can automatically generate a diagram based on the database structure.

The choice of tool depends on the requirements for detail, the need for collaboration, and integration with other systems.
