Open source or free visualization software for flowchart and table database?

Question

I would like to ask you to tell me which visualization software you need to get. I usually use software for vector illustration, such as "inkscape", but I would like to use software where I do not need to draw lines manually and where I can use characters to draw them myself :)

So, do you know good software that I can use for stream tables and database tables? I prefer open source or at least free software.

Thanks in advance, Andreas

Answer 1

Dia is a drawing program similar to Visio. It has a large number of templates, and you can quickly look at examples to see what it can do.

I used it for UML diagrams, and that’s fine (a bit awkward compared to Visio, but at least it's free!). It definitely supports database tables (entity diagrams) and flowcharts.

Answer 2

For open source visualization, try GraphViz .
