HN had a thread regarding the challenges faced by new users during the
adoption of Postgres in 2023.

One particular issue that garnered significant votes was the lack of a
"SHOW CREATE TABLE" command, and seems like it would be an easy one to
implement: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35908991

Considering the popularity of this request and its potential ease of
implementation, I wanted to bring it to your attention, as it would likely
enhance the user experience and alleviate some of the difficulties
encountered by newcomers.
