Witch – macOS window switcher replacement
I'll just quickly plug Kanel (https://github.com/kristiandupont/kanel) which I use to generate Typescript types from a Postgres database. I agree with the author to think migrations-first, though I prefer to write them in SQL to ensure I can utilize all the powerful features that Postgres has to offer.
With it, I only get types for the tables and views etc., so any join will be untyped if done client-side. This is still a big win in my opinion, and I much prefer it to normal ORM's.

Kysely: TypeScript SQL Query Builder
I made a tool that generates Typescript types out of a live Postgres database. I've had a request for Kysely support (https://github.com/kristiandupont/kanel/issues/273), but I more or less forgot about it. I would love to hear if that would be helpful.

Is it possible to create a dynamic type/interface from API response
There are tools that will generate typescript types from a database. I made one for Postgres. But it also works at "compile time", i.e. it doesn't look at a live database. I am not sure if that is what you are asking?

Objection to ORM Hatred
That's interesting. I use Knex a lot and I agree that it's very easy to end up just writing what is basically an ORM on the spot. I haven't quite decided if I think it's a real problem though.
I created and use Kanel (https://github.com/kristiandupont/kanel) to generate Typescript types from my Postgres database which helps a lot. Knex itself has some attempt at type safety but it gets confused quite quickly, so that's where it's tempting to override things.
-
This package is so underrated.
Interesting. Someone asked me if I supported it in Kanel. At the time it was hard to extend Kanel and then I just forgot but perhaps I should take another look at it. I am not exactly overwhelmed with the types that Knex offers even though it does make an honest attempt.

Podcast interview
I’ve written before about the way I let the Postgres schema act as the source of truth by generating types with Kanel (assisted by Schemalint). In addition to this, I mention a homemade framework that sort of resembles a server-side Redux. This gives me typesafe database queries that are automatically reflected all the way to the frontend. I am frequently asked to make it open source and that is still the plan. I just need to untangle it from the Submotion source code which just never seems to be high enough priority. I promise I will get around to it :-)

Postgres to TypeScript Interfaces and Enums
We are using Kanel[1] for this right now — is there an advantage to using this instead?

Would anyone be interested in seeing a tutorial or code TS, GQL, Express, Apollo, and Postgres with no ORM?
Sure. I've been using this lib https://github.com/kristiandupont/kanel to get types from my pg database and it makes it a breeze to use raw sql + ts.

Show HN: Tsynamo – Type-friendly DynamoDB query builder for TypeScript
Hello HN! I was recently introduced to Kysely (https://github.com/kysely-org/kysely), a type-safe Typescript SQL query builder, and instantly fell in love! I got inspired and wanted to make something similar for AWS DynamoDB.
Thus, I developed Tsynamo! Instead of calling it type-safe, I decided to go with type-friendly, because the library is still in an early stage, and is not 100% type-safe.
Under the hood, Tsynamo compiles the built queries into AWS SDK v3 commands. I feel that Tsynamo simplifies the AWS SDK API quite a lot since the developer doesn't have to mess around with condition/filter expressions or attribute names/values themselves, and as a bonus gets autocompletion for building the queries!
There's also a playground to test it out in your browser: https://try.tsynamo.dev. It might not have the most up-to-date API of the library in use yet, but you can get the library's main idea from there.
Since the project is still in its early stages, it doesn't yet have 100% support for all DynamoDB features, like querying indexes. The next steps will be increasing the support coverage and perhaps adding automatic type generation as inspired by kysely-codegen (https://github.com/RobinBlomberg/kysely-codegen).
Would love to get some feedback, thanks in advance!

Flyweight: A Node.js ORM Specifically for SQLite
How does this compare with my current favorite lite sqlite wrapper kysely? https://kysely.dev/
-
ORMs are nice but they are the wrong abstraction
ORMs suck, but raw SQL embedded in your code sucks too.
This might be good time to plug my TypeScript non-ORM: https://jawj.github.io/zapatos/.
I should say I also like what I've seen of https://kysely.dev/ and https://pgtyped.dev/.

NextJs and Kysely
As we can see using Kysely with Nextjs is very simple, and it allows us to create queries in a simple way, create tables, create migrations, transactions, etc.

Drizzle is just as unready for prime-time as Prisma, what else is there?
I've switched to kysely (https://kysely.dev) to just build SQL instead and it's nice to have full SQL access but still be type safe to my schema. Enjoying it so far.
- An effective way to build a heavy CRUD Rest API?
- any typescript users, that'd be interested in using oracledb with kysely (the type-safe query builder)?

I Hate NestJS
Kysely looks like the thing most people would want. It's not a full ORM though - just a well-typed query builder.
