Schema Design Tool for GraphQL - FAQ
What is a schema design tool for GraphQL?

A schema design tool for GraphQL is software that lets you visually create, document, and manage GraphQL schemas — types, interfaces, enums, queries, mutations, and subscriptions — without editing SDL files by hand. Galaxy Modeler lets you draw schema diagrams for GraphQL, define type relationships visually, generate schema definition scripts, and export documentation, all from a desktop application.

How do I create a diagram for a GraphQL schema?

Open the Projects page in Galaxy Modeler and click Import file to load a .graphql SDL file, or Import from URL to load the schema of a live API. Galaxy Modeler creates a project and draws the diagram automatically - types, interfaces, enums, inputs and the references between them. Pick one of three auto-layouts, color related objects, then export the diagram to PDF or an HTML report. Large schemas work too: the public GitHub schema has more than 1,000 objects. See the step-by-step guide to creating a diagram from a URL.

Can Galaxy Modeler import existing GraphQL schemas?

Yes. Galaxy Modeler can import GraphQL schemas directly from existing SDL files or from a live URL. Once imported, your schema is visualized as a diagram showing all types, their fields, and the references between them. You can then annotate, reorganize, and document the schema or continue editing it visually.

Is Galaxy Modeler a free schema design tool for GraphQL?

Galaxy Modeler offers a free 14-day trial with no credit card and no account required. After the trial, it uses a perpetual licensing model — a one-time purchase that lets you use the software forever. Optional annual renewals give access to major new versions. There is also an educational license available for teachers and students.

What GraphQL features does Galaxy Modeler support?

Galaxy Modeler supports the following GraphQL structures: object types, interfaces, unions, enums, input types, scalar types and basic support is available for queries and mutations. You can define field arguments, specify directives, draw implements and reference relationships between types, and organize complex schemas into sub-diagrams for clarity.

Does Galaxy Modeler work offline?

Yes. Galaxy Modeler is a desktop application for Windows, macOS, and Linux. It runs completely offline — no cloud sync, no account needed. Your schema designs, diagrams, and generated scripts are stored locally on your device. You can import from a URL when online, but all design work happens locally.
