Rust GraphQL APIs for NodeJS Developers: Introduction
In my usual NodeJS tech stack, which includes GraphQL, NestJS, SQL (predominantly PostgreSQL with MikroORM), I encountered these limitations. To overcome them, I've developed a new stack utilizing Rust, which still offers some ease of development:

Top 6 ORMs for Modern Node.js App Development
Mikro-ORM is a TypeScript ORM that focuses on simplicity and efficiency. It supports various SQL databases and MongoDB. Mikro-ORM is known for its simplicity and developer-friendly APIs. It provides a concise syntax for defining data models and relationships, making it easy to use.

We migrated to SQL. Our biggest learning? Don't use Prisma
I found MikroORM [0] to be quite reasonable if you're in the TS ecosystem already. It was also easy to do custom, raw queries, and really just felt like it wasn't in the way.

The Epic Stack by Kent C. Dodds
It also does code generation into its own module, so good luck with hoisting in a monorepo where you want multiple independent prisma schemas. MikroORM[1] is a much better alternative to Prisma in my opinion but any ORM carries some form of baggage.

Get started with Drizzle ORM and Xata's Postgres service
Drizzle ORM is a very popular TypeScript ORM that provides type safe access to your database, automated migrations, and a custom data model definition.

Shape Typing in Python
> being able to have a completely typesafe ORM such as Drizzle (https://orm.drizzle.team/) feels like a Rubicon moment, and touching anything else feels like a significant step backwards.
Alright, but there's nothing stopping you from having a completely typesafe ORM in python, is there?
Sure, there's isn't really one that everyone uses yet, but the python community tends to be a bit more cautious and slower to adopt big changes like that.

Don't use your ORM entities for everything – embrace the SQL
Drizzle [1] comes pretty close the last time I checked.

I Deployed My Own Cute Lil’ Private Internet (a.k.a. VPC)
Each app’s front end is built with Qwik and uses Tailwind for styling. The server-side is powered by Qwik City (Qwik’s official meta-framework) and runs on Node.js hosted on a shared Linode VPS. The apps also use PM2 for process management and Caddy as a reverse proxy and SSL provisioner. The data is stored in a PostgreSQL database that also runs on a shared Linode VPS. The apps interact with the database using Drizzle, an Object-Relational Mapper (ORM) for JavaScript. The entire infrastructure for both apps is managed with Terraform using the Terraform Linode provider, which was new to me, but made provisioning and destroying infrastructure really fast and easy (once I learned how it all worked).

Exploring Astro DB
It's just SQL so you can take it out at any moment and move to any other DB provider. The package for working with Astro DB, @astrojs/db, includes Drizzle ORM so migration to a different provider should be relatively painless
- ORMs are nice but they are the wrong abstraction

Basic analytics with Vercel Postgres, Drizzle & Astro
Since Vercel's analytics pricing is a bit too expensive for my use case (where I hit the limit of 2,500 requests per month), and I didn't like using Google Analytics (not a big fan of Google), I decided to build my own analytics dashboard. Databases was something I didn't work with much before directly, so I decided to use an ORM, Drizzle, which is quite lightweight and easy to use.

Edge Functions: Node and native NPM compatibility
do yourself a favor and ditch Prisma. It's a bloody mess of a project and codebase. I recommend https://github.com/drizzle-team/drizzle-orm to anyone that'll listen.

Drizzle is just as unready for prime-time as Prisma, what else is there?
I myself ran into some issues when I started using drizzle with mysql. They had issues in the way they were handling datetime types. At the time I just used workarounds but then decided to submit a PR since the solution was pretty simple. I just liked drizzle's approach so much that I ended up committing more PRs. At this point, I'm one of the mayor contributors of the library. I think that we have to give some leeway to OSS libraries. Managing OSS is not easy, everybody's issues are important and mayor to them, but there's just so many hours in the day to work for free (or very little). At the end of the day, it's just software prone to have issues.
