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.

Kysely: TypeScript SQL Query Builder
This is really cool, will look into using it in future projects!
I also made a tool (https://github.com/vramework/schemats) that generates the types directly from the db, which means whenever you do a DB migration your database types automatically update. Was forked from the original schemats library a couple years ago.
I also created a lightweight library ontop of pg that is less of a query builder and more of a typed CRUD + SQL for non trivial queries (https://github.com/vramework/postgres-typed). Most queries I deal with in a day to day is usually crud so I find it a little easier, but it's much less powerful then Kysely! I fall more into the camp of writing complex queries in SQL with small helpers and writing simple ones with util functions and typescript

Ask HN: Who Wants to Collaborate?
I'm working on a few projects, from one/two days to platforms.
The first is OS and is a simple nodeJS environment to deploy applications via lambda and express quickly. Sort of like nestJS except less decorators and more functional (https://vramework.io/). I already know of a few other colleagues that rolled their own propriety versions of this to support enterprise and cloud deployments so decided to OS it.
The other OS project is a strongly typed postgres/mysql driver. The idea is to generate typescript definitions directly from postgres (https://github.com/vramework/schemats) and then have a think layer ontop of pg-node that gives you strongly typed queries (https://github.com/vramework/postgres-typed).
An open-source project I spent a few years on the core team is https://deepstream.io/, a realtime-server that allows you to mix and match multiple streaming protocols (mqtt/websocket/others) and allow those clients to talk to each other using pub-sub and records. I'm not longer working for it but wanted to give it a shout out!
On a non OS project, I have been working on an immersive audio platform for a while now. The main goal is to allow users to pick and choose how audio books progress, and also have a live session mode which allows users to record their pulse / answer questions and a few other metrics and associate it with sentences. I pretty much built and deployed all of it but require some advice/brainstorming on how to proceed now. I built it to satisfy an itch when I was practicing shamanism during the first lockdown when I was in-between contracts / taking time off.
I also want to build a simple web-pages strategy game based around eco-education, but don't have the bandwidth . If anyone is interested in mixing together gamification and eco-village building might be a fun conversion to bounce ideas!
All the OS projects above were used to support my personal/a couple professional projects over the last few years.

Ask HN: Freelancer? Seeking freelancer? (October 2021)
- Elderly care / Matching platforms (marta.de)
Recently (2021) have spent my time between my own product enjamon.com (almost at launch stage), working part-time for marta.de where I built their backend office, matching algorithm and two client facing apps (as the sole developer + intern) and some open-source projects around deployment strategies and postgres/typescript node interfaces (https://github.com/vramework/schemats).
Currently looking for a job where I can work part-time (20 hours a week) or for on-demand tasks (like optimising APIs, CI pipelines, AWS infrastructure).
