## What it is
gormt is a Go tool that connects to a MySQL (and optionally SQLite/MSSQL) database and automatically generates Golang struct definitions compatible with gorm v1/v2, including JSON tags, foreign keys, and helper functions. It offers both a command-line mode and a GUI mode, configured via a config.yml file or CLI flags.

## Use cases
- generate golang structs from mysql database tables
- create gorm models from an existing database schema
- reverse engineer mysql schema into go structs with  tags
- generate model files with foreign key and index annotations
- scaffold gorm model code for a legacy database
- export database tables to big camel-case go structs

## When to choose
- you use gorm in Go and need models generated from an existing MySQL schema
- you want automatic JSON tags, foreign keys, and helper functions in generated structs
- you prefer a tool with both CLI and GUI operation

## When to avoid
- your database is not MySQL/SQLite/MSSQL (e.g. PostgreSQL)
- you use a different ORM than gorm or db tags
- you need runtime ORM functionality rather than code generation

## Facets
- artifact type: cli-tool
- maturity: active
- function: orm, database, developer-tools
- domain: developer-tools, databases, backend
- platform: go, cli, cross-platform
- tags: gorm, mysql, struct-generation, code-generator, gui-mode, code-generation
