🏆 Top Scala open source projects and contributors
I was surprised to see Prisma (a js library) listed, digging more I found out that they indeed had an Scala project which is now archived https://github.com/prisma/prisma1

Show HN: WunderBase – Serverless OSS Database on Top of SQLite, Firecracker
Hey there, I'm Nikolas from the Prisma team. Just came here to quickly clarify this notion:
> Prisma is an API server that puts a GraphQL API in front of a DB.
Prisma is an ORM which generates a JavaScript/TypeScript client library for your database.
Your description is very true for Prisma 1 (which has been in maintenance mode for several years and is officially deprecated by now [1]), but the latest version(s) of Prisma (v2+) don't expose a GraphQL API any more. Prisma 1 also used GraphQL SDL for data modeling, the Prisma ORM on the other hand has its own, custom modeling language for describing database schemas in a declarative way and also comes with a flexible migration system.
That being said (and as Jens also mentioned elsewhere), the Prisma ORM does use GraphQL _internally_ as a wire protocol. However, as a developer, you _never_ touch this internal GraphQL layer and are not even supposed to be aware of it (you actually have to jump through a lot of hoops to even "find" it). It's also very likely that we'll replace GraphQL as a wire protocol in the future, so "GraphQL" really isn't something you should be thinking about as a developer who is using Prisma.
Hope that clarifies the situation a bit, let me know if you have any further questions around this topic.

Why is Prisma so popular and who the hell is using it for production?
Could you clarify this? Are you referring to the old Prisma 1 Cloud or the new Prisma Data Platform?

Comparing 4 popular NestJS ORMs
First released in 2019, Prisma is the newest ORM of the four we discussed. It will need time to get to a more mature state. Recently, the release of version 3 introduced a few breaking changes. There are also some existing issues noted in GitHub, such as that it does not support some Postgres column types.

Preferred SQL ORM
Mongoose is quite a standard also open-source, but Prisma is an emerging modern solution that seems to take the cake.

What is Blitz.js & How to Get Started With It
Well, here comes Blitz, the agnostic monolith. Take the database, for example - Blitz comes out-of-the-box with Prisma 2. However, you're free to switch to another one like Fauna or DynamoDB. The same goes for the configuration; deciding a folder structure, defining routing conventions, selecting a styling library, and adding authorization and authentication are all set up by default, but that doesn't mean you cannot go your own way.

Rakkas: Next.js alternative powered by Vite
There is also a RealWorld port (Rakkas implementation of the RealWorld specification), a simple but complete fullstack application demonstrating how to approach building a REST API, accessing your database (via Prisma), handling authentication, testing, and more.

GraphQL & REST with Prisma and Azure SQL: love at first sight!
If you're into Typescript and prefer a code-first approach when working with databases, you'll be happy to learn about Prisma! Prisma is a next-generation Node.js and TypeScript ORM, that allows you to define a schema using a dedicated DSL so that you can then have all the comforts of modern development environments like intellisense, static type checking, automatic scaffolding and more.

Is NextJS a server side framework?
It is a frontend framework, but with API routes and ORMs like https://www.prisma.io/ , you could use it as a complete stack in traditional sense I suppose.

When should I use runtime checks (and which runtime checker should I use)?
In terms of which runtime checker I should use. The first tutorial I saw suggested 'Zod', doing a bit more searchign yielded other options such as 'runtypes'.

An almost religious case for Rust
Runtypes would probably be a better example.

How to force a type when importing a JSON file?
I personally like https://github.com/pelotom/runtypes because it bundles your Schema Info and the corresponding Typescript types
- Why doesn’t TypeScript natively do any type checking
-
Create d.ts for API response
When I have to deal with data from API calls, I usually use a runtime typing library like Runtypes or Zod to check the responses at the boundary. These libraries can automatically give you TS types (using their static or infer utilities) to use throughout the rest of the project.

Typing for JSON Payloads
Also runtypes and (as mentioned below) zod.

How to check that an 'unknown' object has a specific key and that the key is a specific type?
Seconding the recommendation to use a library for this. runtypes and io-ts are two other alternatives.

Check types at the top level or in each function?
I wouldn't reinvent the wheel: https://github.com/pelotom/runtypes
