Original Summary

Hey everyone! For the past year or so, a friend and I have been working on Datasmith, a desktop app for designing relational database schemas and generating structured mock data from them. The idea originally came from my friend, who's a data engineer and worked on large-scale migrations of sensitive databases. He wanted a simple way to visually define and maintain schemas over long periods of time, and actually generate data that follows both the schema and its business logic, without having to constantly rewrite scripts or configure a bunch of separate tools. The main part of the app is an ERD-like canvas dedicated to building relational schemas, where you can create tables, define columns and their data types, set up relationships between them, and configure how the data for each column should be generated. Once the schema is ready, Datasmith can generate the data while preserving the relationships between tables, and export the results in formats like SQL DDL, CSV, JSON, and more. We've reached the point where we'd really like to get it into the hands of more people who actually work with databases and data, and get some real-world feedback. It's completely free, so if it sounds useful or you're just curious, you can check it out here: https://data-smith.app/ I'd especially love to hear about use cases we're missing, things you'd expect a tool like this to support, or anything that feels like it could be improved. Any feedback is welcome - good or bad. Feel free to leave a comment or message me directly. If you prefer something a bit more structured, I also put together a short feedback form: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScGk8Jr1DguPcXpaApOqO998AdXcnoLlo11TEKlq1GmF71UzA/viewform   submitted by   /u/iParki [link]   [comments]
