lucidQL is an open-source tool to assist developers in the migration from a legacy RESTful API to GraphQL. It also serves as a visualizer tool for your GraphQL API. lucidQL allows the user to view the GraphQL schema layout and relationships between data.

Check out the tool - www.lucidQL.com

First choose your desired Postgres database that you want to use to create a graphQL API, and enter the link where prompted, and click submit. lucidQL will immediately start by reading your database, extracting all the tables, and their relationships, and generate a GraphQL schema.

A visual representation will display on the left side of the tool, users can analyze their current database and their table relationships.

The lucidQL tool allows the user to simplify their schema by being able to delete any relationships that they no longer require.

• If any tables are undesired in the final product, simply drag a table to the garbage icon, lucidQL will handle the rest.
• The GraphQL schemas will be regenerated accordingly to your changes.
• if you make a mistake, simply click the "undo" button.

The lucidQL tool comes pre-packaged with a backend, which enables the user to access GraphQL playground and start querying your new API, immediately. After entering a Postgres URI. The user will just have to click on "GraphQL PLayground" which can be accessed through the side menu bar.
