What's your graph database administration workflow?
I'm the author of CypherGUI and the PHP Bolt driver. Few years building and maintaining graph database tooling gives you opinions, but I'm starting to think my opinions might not match what people actually need.
So before I form too many of them, I wanted to ask here.
I built CypherGUI with one goal: make it easier for developers coming from relational databases to get comfortable with Neo4j. No backend dependency, just plain HTML/CSS/JS you can open locally or drop anywhere. It works, people use it (I hope), but I honestly don't hear much about the day-to-day reality of how people administer their instances.
I'm curious about few things:
- What tools are you using for querying and browsing? Neo4j Browser, Bloom, something else, combination?
- If you went through relational-to-graph transition, what helped and what didn't?
- What do you wish worked differently in your current setup?
I have some ideas about what might be worth improving. But I'd rather hear what's real for people before I assume I know. You can also share a minute and fill out this form for me.
If you've tried cypherGUI and have feedback, good or bad, I'd like to hear that too.
