Planning a project using MongoDB and looking for a tool to map out the database.

Any suggestions of a database design tool similar to http://ondras.zarovi.cz/sql/demo/ that specifically supports MongoDB?

Thanks

If you are looking for a way to create a data model to communicate your design, there are no tools out there specifically created to model json-structured data.

However, you could use UML tools or XML design tools to create your models. I've been less than satisfied with both methods, but it's all I have until some awesome developer builds a json-based data modeling tool.
