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.

PLJS β JavaScript Language Plugin for PostreSQL
a bit more than an experiment at this point. pljs, even in its early state, has some very good results: https://github.com/plv8/plv8/issues/531#issuecomment-1627883...
passing through v8's javascript/c++ membrane has always been painful, and appears to be getting worse.

Sending Email From Postgres
From here you'll write a send_email function in Postgres that calls the API. I initially wrote the entire function in PLpgSQL and spent an entire day to get it debugged and working. And even then I wasn't happy with it. In my opinion that language is unintuitive and difficult to learn and debug. I switched over to PLV8, an extension for Postgres that supports writing functions in Javascript. It takes one click in the Supabase UI to enable this extension, and it will save hours and hours of time.

I wrote a database engine in Typescript
You jest, but the evil geniuses at plv8 have already done it for Postgresql.

Surrealdb β FOSS document-graph database, for the realtime web in Rust
To be honest I haven't used it, but I've extensively used pl/pgsql and a little pl/ruby, and know that https://plv8.github.io/ exists - it might be what you're looking for and it's on my list of things to play with

Show HN: Postgres.js β Fastest Full-Featured PostgreSQL Client for Node and Deno
but, let's take your straw man a little further. let's suppose that all of the actual parsing is done for you already, and all you're doing is iterating through the data structure, creating objects through the c++ api, and calling it good. that should be faster than calling the c++ JSON.parse(), shouldn't it? since we don't have to actually parse anything, right? no, it's actually much slower. you can see this in action at https://github.com/plv8/plv8/blob/r3.1/plv8_type.cc#L173-L60...
again, we're not talking about whether javascript in an interpreter is faster than c++, we're talking about whether v8's api causes enough slowdown that some workloads that require a lot of data between c++ and javascript are slower than the same workload that requires very little data between c++ and javascript ... because passing through v8's c++/javascript membrane is slow.

Neon Is Generally Available: Serverless Postgres
I want to use this as a chance to bring attention to a GitHub issue that I think would help reduce friction for Neon:
https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/4989
If the Neon driver were to allow us to easily pass in a localhost connection, the development and test experience would be easier. Perhaps Neon could swap to something like this internally: https://github.com/porsager/postgres.
Having run a local dev environment connected to Neon and tests connected to Neon got in our way of adoption. We'd prefer to develop and run tests against a regular Postgres localhost database.
To the PMs of Neon, put yourself in the shoes of a new developer thinking of giving Neon a try. What changes will I have to make to my code and my development workflow?

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:

We migrated to SQL. Our biggest learning? Don't use Prisma ORM
There's a core client interface here:

On what makes it postgres.js faster, from author himself:
> it seems Postgres.js is actually faster than, not only pg, but of any driver out-there

Relational is more than SQL
When viewed as a DSL for set theory, views, CTEs, set-returning functions, et al are indeed proper first-class query abstractions.
When viewed through the lens of general purpose imperative or functional programming languages, it's easy to see how it can be seen as falling short.
I'll admit much of the tooling and driver APIs leave a lot to be desired.
Some tools do make good efforts though such as nested fragments in this driver.

SQLite-based databases on the Postgres protocol? Yes we can
I don't think this should turn in to an ORM or not debate, but there are plenty of reasons, especially for the crowd that would do anything to avoid ORMs. Just try to take a peek into the multitude of "ORMs are bad" articles / discussions.
For instance - I would love to be able to use https://github.com/porsager/postgres with sqlite.
