DBML (Database Markup Language) is a versatile, human-readable language designed for defining and documenting database structures. It supports a range of database tools and is not tied to any specific database syntax. Tools include dbdiagram.io for visualizations and dbdocs.io for documentation. Various plugins and parsers for editors like Emacs, Vim, and VSCode, as well as programming languages like Python, Go, and Java, are available.

<p>I’ve been using dbml for quite a while now with much success, I can only recommend it if you have to share db documentation with a larger audience.
I wish they would have more features like diff generation and a few others, but it’s still very useful!</p>
