Release 3.0.0

Graph Explorer 3.0 is here! This release brings one of the most requested features — the ability to visualize your graph database schema — along with a fresh navigation experience and a handful of quality-of-life improvements.

If you're upgrading from a previous version, all your existing connections, preferences, and configuration data will carry over unchanged.

Schema Explorer

You can now see the shape of your graph at a glance. The new Schema Explorer renders your vertex types, edge types, and their connections as an interactive schema graph. Drill into any type from the sidebar to see property details and data types. Edge connection discovery maps out how your types relate, giving you a bird's-eye view of your entire graph structure.

The schema is built by sampling your graph data, so it reflects what Graph Explorer has seen so far and may not capture every type or property in your database.

Redesigned Navigation

Getting around Graph Explorer just got easier. The navigation bar has been rebuilt as a clean, static top bar for moving between the Graph Explorer, Data Explorer, and Schema Explorer. Sidebar tabs have been refreshed to match the new look.

Data Explorer Improvements

The Data Explorer now includes a vertex type switcher for faster browsing across types and a new export button to download data as CSV or JSON (thanks @dwrth!).

Other Improvements

• Rewritten RDF prefix generation and replacement logic
• Standardized terminology across Gremlin, openCypher, and SPARQL
• Very large and very small numbers now display using scientific notation
• Keyword search labels are clearer and more descriptive
