## What's your graph database administration workflow? I'm the author of [CypherGUI](https://github.com/stefanak-michal/cyphergui) and the [PHP Bolt driver](https://github.com/stefanak-michal/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](https://forms.gle/E4A58tLv6jNGh6gD8) for me. * * * _If you've tried cypherGUI and have feedback, good or bad, I'd like to hear that too._
