DrawSQL vs. ERDPlus vs. SQLGate vs. TypeScript Comparison Chart

A database modeling tool for creating entity relationship diagrams, relational schemas, star schemas, and SQL DDL statements. ERDPlus is a web-based database modeling tool that lets you quickly and easily create Entity Relationship Diagrams (ERDs). Works with most contemporary RDBMS tools including Oracle, MySQL, Microsoft SQL Server, PostgreSQL, Teradata, IBM DB2, Microsoft Access, and others. The notation supports drawing regular and weak entities, various types of attributes (regular, unique, multi-valued, derived, composite, and optional), and all possible cardinality constraints of relationships (mandatory-many, optional-many, mandatory-one, and optional-one). The tool supports the quick creation of foreign keys and referential integrity lines by simple click-point-connect actions. This simplifies and quickens the process of creating relational schemas. The notation distinguishes fact tables from dimension tables by using a thicker frame around fact tables.

TypeScript adds additional syntax to JavaScript to support a tighter integration with your editor. Catch errors early in your editor. TypeScript code converts to JavaScript, which runs anywhere JavaScript runs: In a browser, on Node.js or Deno and in your apps. TypeScript understands JavaScript and uses type inference to give you great tooling without additional code. TypeScript was used by 78% of the 2020 State of JS respondents, with 93% saying they would use it again. The most common kinds of errors that programmers write can be described as type errors: a certain kind of value was used where a different kind of value was expected. This could be due to simple typos, a failure to understand the API surface of a library, incorrect assumptions about runtime behavior, or other errors.
