Which ORM would you pick, Prisma or Typeorm
As few comments have already offered alternatives, so I'll mention Joist.
-
Does Typeorm violate the type contract when using relations that aren't explicitly loaded?
I used TypeORM in the past; I had a ton of problems with it. I highly recommend https://joist-orm.io/ instead.

What is your favorite way to maintain types and schema in a full stack web app, end-to-end?
Codegen our backend models directly from the db (here a strict 1-1 mapping is a feature imo; we use https://github.com/stephenh/joist-ts/), so we get `Green` added to the backend `Color.ts` for free.

Well, shit. Objection.js has been sunset, which ORM/querybuilder did you move to?
Ha, well, as you noted, I'm wary of even bothering to comment :-), but would be great if you checked out Joist: https://joist-orm.io/

Type-safe Data Access in Go using Prisma and sqlc
Now, why not use an ORM? I've seen performance issues too many times with ORMs. I prefer writing my own SQL to avoid surprises. After all, I know the database schema and writing code for a specific purpose very often leads to better performance than generic code. ORMs have to support all kinds of database schemas. I only have to support mine. Having successfully used Knex.js in NodeJS (a popular query builder) in the past, I know writing SQL queries myself is not hard and provides very good performance.

Why SQL is right for Infrastructure Management
SQL is an old, irregular language to work with, but it is better known than HCL and SQL already has it's own Pulumi/CDK in the form of every ORM with introspection (like Javascript's Prisma, Python's Django, Go's XO etc) and QueryBuilder (LINQ, Knex, etc) in whatever programming language you prefer. You probably already know it.
