  1. The Entity-Relationship Diagram (ERD) tool in pgAdmin is a powerful database design utility that provides a graphical representation of database tables, their columns, and relationships. It is particularly useful for visualizing, designing, and maintaining databases.

    • Export options to save diagrams as images or generate SQL scripts.
