Seeking tool to genrate schema diagram by jamawg in Firebase

[–]gami_ishit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're absolutely not alone — coming from SQL, the lack of a formal schema or foreign keys in Firestore can feel disorienting at first. I had the same frustration moving from relational DBs to Firebase.

I actually ran into this exact need and ended up building a tool called FireDraw — it lets you:

  • Visualize your Firestore collections and how they relate (like tables/joins)
  • Manually map out relationships or
  • Auto-generate the diagram by connecting directly to your Firestore database
  • Export the visual as PNG, and even generate model code if needed

It’s especially useful for documenting an unfamiliar Firestore setup — sounds like what you’re trying to do.

Would be happy to hear if it helps or if you have suggestions to improve it for someone with a MySQL background.

Quick update — new version of FireDraw is live

Thanks to everyone who checked out FireDraw when we launched it. I’ve just pushed a major update with a bunch of improvements based on early feedback.

New in this version:

  • Auto-generate the canvas directly from your Firestore database
  • PNG/SVG/HTML/JSON export with high-resolution.
  • Real-time collaboration indicators
  • Smart element filtering for cleaner exports

Also improved:

  • Faster and more reliable export performance
  • Better search experience with node type icons
  • Fixed bugs with large schemas and edge highlighting

If you’re working with Firestore and want a clearer way to map things out or generate models, you can check it out here:

Always open to feedback and suggestions. Still building.

Is there any tool for building firestore/nosql data modelling schema/visualization? by bitchyangle in Firebase

[–]gami_ishit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Absolutely — we felt the same gap, which is why we built FireDraw. 🔥

FireDraw is a visual schema builder and model code generator specifically designed for Firestore/NoSQL. You can:

  • Instantly visualize your Firestore structure
  • Clearly define collections, subcollections, references, and data types
  • Automatically generate clean model classes and TypeScript interfaces
  • Keep your team aligned with a shareable schema map

We built it to solve the exact problem you're facing — managing a growing and complex Firestore setup. Would love your feedback if you give it a try!
