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.

This article will be focused on a security issue that I found in Knex and how to mitigate it, but I'll also talk briefly about the social aspects of this problem.

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.

Kysely: TypeScript SQL Query Builder
How does HN receive SQL builders in general? I feel like most of us agree ORMs are typically a bad idea. I feel like that almost instantly leaves the need for "something" to take its place. In my experience, it's typically been a query builder like this.
I've also tried:
https://www.npmjs.com/package/sql-template-strings ("out of date" since like 2016? https://www.npmjs.com/package/sql-template-tag might be better)
Are query builders an anti pattern? People who are doing serious/logic heavy stuff with SQL, how do you avoid a query builder (if at all?)

Promises, Thenables, & Lazy-evaluation: What, Why, How
Of course, this is a trivial example that you probably won’t find in production code, but there are many projects that use lazy-evaluated Promise-like objects. Probably the most common example is with database ORMs and query builders like Knex.js or Prisma.

MagLit - Free and Open Source Link Shortener with Privacy, Encryption, Password Protection and more!
why not just use a mariadb or postgres docker image? heck, even sqlite should be fine, given the simplicity of your needs. i work with nodejs myself, i'd highly recommend knexjs for this- it's super flexible!

End-To-End Polymorphism: From Database to UI, Achieving SOLID Design
Unfortunately Prisma hasn’t supported polymorphism yet. As such, you can't use inheritance to model the entity in the same way as in your programming language, as depicted in the above class diagram. The good news is that we could intimate it using table inheritance to imitate it.

Taming cross-service database transactions in NestJS with AsyncLocalStorage
There have been multiple feature requests to add native support for AsyncLocalStorage to Prisma, but they haven't been met with much enthusiasm from the maintainers. Some people solved it by extending and overriding the client (which is arguably prone to breaking with updates).

How to Build & Deploy Scalable Microservices with NodeJS, TypeScript and Docker || A Comprehesive Guide
Our products microservice is also straight forward just like how the auth has been. As previously plotted, we will be using different technologies on each service and we are using PostgreSQL as a database and prisma orm(Object Relational Mapper) for querying our DB. ORMs are used to translate between the data representations used by databases and those used in object-oriented programming, and in this service, we will be using one of the most common ones in the nodejs ecosystem, Prisma. It is the only fully type-safe ORM in the TypeScript ecosystem. The generated Prisma Client ensures typed query results even for partial queries and relations.

What will happen to the full-stack framework in the future?
Even now, fewer full-stack developers are willing to directly talk with databases through the complexities of SQL queries and database schema management, let alone the ones that come from the front-end world. Therefore ORM has already been the standard kit for the existing framework. For instance, all three frameworks mentioned above have adopted Prisma ORM.
