Hi there,

We want to present our command line interface - "Hubql CLI" to you! Our tool is available as NPM package (hubql)

Hubql is a collaboration platform for building, visualizing, and documenting data models and API schemas. Hubql's new command-line interface will enable you to interact with Hubql in a new way. Use our CLI to link your local folder to Hubql and publish your files to our platform, to generate preview links for collaboration with others for your JSON, GraphQL, Prisma, XML and Protobuf files.

You can also generate documentation and download diagrams to your local machine.This will allow you to automate documentation generation and keep your documentation up to date. Furthermore, you can generate documentation collaboration links to collaborate or share with your team and external stakeholders.

We prepared a short Quickstart guide:

We are releasing Hubql CLI on Product Hunt today. We'd love to hear your thoughts and hope for your support and feedback.

Take me to Product Hunt

Navigating the complex landscape of IT services and applications can be overwhelming for early-stage SaaS startups. Maintaining clarity of the tools used is significant for efficiency and effective decision-making. At Hubql, we’ve faced these challenges and developed a Tech Stack to provide insight into the usage of IT services and applications across various units and processes.

Our Tech Stack came out as a true team effort. It's the blend of everyone's insights and efforts - crafted, refined, and optimized to fit our unique needs. This dynamic toolkit is more than just a set of tools; it's a reflection of our journey, showcasing the collaborative spirit that fuels our SaaS startup.
