tanstack.com VS Prisma

- UI kit (I personally have good experience with React Material UI - https://mui.com/; there is also https://tanstack.com/)

I recently listened to a talk by Tanner Linsley, the creator of TanStack (React Query), about his personal experience in the open-source community. I highly recommend listening to it:

Svelte doesn't use a virtual DOM and when it compiles, it only targets what you are specifically using it for.

The thing with Svelte is that for a big project (like an SPA) you're going to end up using SvelteKit, because that's where all the development focus is for things like routing etc... and SvelteKit isn't nearly as settled. As in, there aren't developed "patterns" for doing a lot of things yet so it's a lot of trailblazing. There's also some features that are missing and on the roadmap but SvelteKit just hit 1.0 in December (these are usually more obscure things but you will still likely encounter them if you're building something of moderate complexity.)

I still think overall it would be fine to use for a big project, but a year from now I think it will be a much easier choice. Something that is happening right now is a lot of big players in the wider JS ecosystem are transforming from being React specific to framework agnostic:

- NextJS -> Auth.js: https://twitter.com/balazsorban44/status/1603082914362986496

- React Table / React Query -> TanStack Table, TanStack Query: https://tanstack.com/

This has all happened in the last few months. So it's still new, and they're still improving as they move away from being React specific. People rely on those projects. As more move in that direction I think it will become easier and easier.

5: TanStack React

This is where the TanStack comes in. I really hope that the fact that the TanStack has all packages built in a framework-agnostic way will help adoption of non-React libraries over time. Think about it: If you need to fetch some data, render a table and maybe virtualize it - you can do all of that with the TanStack. And if you know how to do this in React, you also already know how to do it in Solid, Svelte or Vue.

Other popular packages in this generation include the tanstack series of packages:

Disclaimer, I'm the founder of AG Grid, however I'm also friends with Tanner. You can see from tanstack.com that AG Grid is both a sponsor but more importantly a partner with TanStack.

In the world of software development, there are two kinds of developers: those who have never had to complain about ORMs and those who have actually used them. Whether it’s Django ORM for Python, Active Record for Ruby, GORM for Golang, Doctrine for PHP, or Prisma for TypeScript, a common issue persists: writing simple queries is straightforward, but constructing complex or optimized queries can take hours, if not days.

Support for a Union type #2505

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.

In this project I am manually declaring the data types. For better type-safety, use Prisma, which automatically generates types based on your database schema.

When you're creating a full-stack application, you'll also need to write logic to interact with your database. For relational databases like Postgres, you can do this with SQL, or an ORM like Prisma.

Prisma is a modern TypeScript-first ORM that allows you to manage database schemas easily, make queries and mutations with great flexibility, and ensure excellent type safety.

Prisma

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).
