Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

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.

Complex business logic in Node
If you like Rails/ActiveRecord, Joist is our attempt at a "AR-or-better productivity" ORM for TypeScript.

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/

Sneakiest development trap: making easy easier...
And sometimes invest instead in learning a technology rather than hide it: for example slonik encourages you to write normal SQL queries by making SQL templating easier and safer. In turn, your IDE would be able to understand those queries and give you support based on the database schemas you actually have.

Drizzle is just as unready for prime-time as Prisma, what else is there?
I'd push you to consider using postgres, slonik or similar for database queries. With these libraries, you just write SQL, but they perform input sanitization for you. So you can safely write:
- Slonik: PostgreSQL client for Node.js with runtime validation
-
PostgresJs: The Fastest full featured PostgreSQL client for Node.js and Deno
You can already use postgres with Slonik.

It is not going to be the default because it is way slower.

Test node_version:18 test_only:postgres-integration is taking 3 minutes.
Test node_version:18 test_only:pg-integration is taking 38 seconds.

Integrating Slonik with Express.js
For those uninitiated, Slonik is a battle-tested SQL query building and execution library for Node.js. Its primary goal is to allow you to write and compose SQL queries in a safe and convenient way. Now, let's see how it pairs with Express.js.
-
Which Postgres client are you using?
I am the maintainer of Slonik and I am trying to understand what portion of this sub-users are using Slonik vs other libraries, and if they are using anything else – what are their reasons for it.

JEP Draft: String Templates (Final)
It's nice that they implemented string templates essentially exactly the same way Javascript template literals and tag functions work. They even give an example of using it to create a prepared statement (e.g. DB."SELECT * FROM foo WHERE bar = \{inputParam}") which is exactly what many NodeJS libraries due, e.g. Slonik https://github.com/gajus/slonik, like sql`SELECT * FROM foo WHERE bar = ${inputParam}`;
-
We use TypeScript not based on preference, but because we want to make money
I've found libraries like Zod useful when interacting with external data sources like a database. Slonik[1] uses Zod to define the types expected from a SQL query and then performs runtime validation on the data to ensure that the query is yielding the expected type.
I don't think it's necessary to use Zod/runtime validation everywhere, but it's a nice tool to have on hand.

Is ORM still an anti-pattern?

The Epic Stack by Kent C. Dodds
Have you tried Slonik (https://github.com/gajus/slonik)? It won't generate types from queries automatically, but it encourages writing SQL vs. a query builder and allows type annotations of queries with Zod. Query results are validated at runtime to ensure the queries are typed correctly.
