PGSimCity Visualizes PostgreSQL Internals for Developers
PGSimCity is a new interactive tool that visualizes how PostgreSQL processes queries, from parsing to execution. It simulates a city-like interface where each building represents a database component, helping developers understand query planning and optimization. The tool is open-source and available on GitHub for educational and debugging purposes.

While visually engaging, the tool's practical utility for production debugging may be limited compared to existing PostgreSQL monitoring solutions.
