Visualize any GraphQL schema as a dynamic, interactive graph with a lightweight library.
Birdseye is an interactive tool that dynamically displays GraphQL schemas as a visual graph. It helps developers and teams understand the structure, nodes, and connections within their GraphQL schema by providing an explorable, graphical representation. The tool is designed to be lightweight and easily integrated into web projects.
GraphQL developers, API designers, and engineering teams who need to visualize, document, or explore GraphQL schemas in a more intuitive way.
Birdseye offers a significantly smaller bundle size compared to alternatives like GraphQL Voyager, making it a lightweight choice for web projects. It provides dynamic interactivity, customizable styling, and seamless integration as both a JavaScript library and React component.

At less than 200 KB, Birdseye is significantly smaller than alternatives like GraphQL Voyager (1.2 MB), making it ideal for web projects concerned with performance.
Users can click on fields or types to dynamically view their connections, making it easy to understand complex schema relationships.
Available as both a JavaScript library and a React component, Birdseye can be quickly added to any web project with minimal setup, as shown in the README.
The tool supports custom themes and styles, allowing teams to match the visualization to their project's design, per the features list.
Birdseye currently lacks support for GraphQL union and interface types, as admitted in the roadmap, limiting its usefulness for schemas that rely on these features.
The roadmap notes that performance improvements are needed for larger schemas, so it may struggle with very complex graphs, affecting usability.
Smoother UI transitions and interactions are planned, indicating the current version might feel unpolished or less responsive in user experience.
