Thank you for creating this! Looking forward to trying it out.

Just one comment on the name, I see where you are coming from with DuckDB ER Diagrams but in the Linux world it's common for things ending in d to be daemons. Of course it doesn't hold for all things (like find) but that was my first reaction upon seeing the name. I don't have a suggestion for anything better but it might be something to consider.

Thanks again.

Hi @snth, You're absolutely right about the “d” often being associated with daemons in the Linux world. In this case, though, “ERD” refers to "Entity-Relationship Diagram," a term common in database design to illustrate data structure
