StackRender

StackRender provides a visual workspace for database development, turning schema design into a migration-driven workflow. Create and evolve your database structure using interactive ER diagrams, track changes as your project grows, and keep a complete history of schema evolution.

With StackRender, you can generate SQL migrations from detected schema changes and create rollback scripts for each migration. It also includes an AI assistant to generate and improve database schemas, helping you iterate faster without losing visibility into the underlying structure.

You can start from scratch or import existing SQL schemas to create interactive ER diagrams. Use it either as a cloud app in your browser or as a self-hosted, open-source option for teams that want full control over their infrastructure and data.

Can I import an existing SQL database schema into StackRender and generate migrations for it?

You can import existing SQL to create interactive ER diagrams, then use schema changes to generate corresponding SQL migrations.

Does StackRender support rename operations like changing a table or column name?

You can manage schema evolution through detected schema diffs, which drive migration generation for changes you make in the editor.

Does StackRender generate rollback (down) scripts for migrations?

Yes. For every migration, StackRender can generate rollback scripts so you can safely reverse changes.

Does the AI Assistant alter my database schema directly?

Use the AI assistant to generate and improve schemas with AI assistance. Review the resulting schema changes in the editor before you generate migrations.

Can I try StackRender without creating an account?

The tool offers a way to start quickly, but account requirements aren’t specified in the provided content—check the editor entry flow when you launch.

What editions are available for using StackRender?

You can use StackRender as a cloud web app (no installation required) or as a self-hosted, free and open-source platform deployed on your own infrastructure.
