  • bisonapp

    A Full Stack Jamstack in-a-box brought to you by Echobind

  • At Echobind, we’re committed to building the best software we can for our clients. As we choose our technology stack, we have to balance a number of tradeoffs, including stability, flexibility, scalability, and the speed of development. We wrap our favorite tools in a starter repository we call Bison.

  • zod

    TypeScript-first schema validation with static type inference

  • tRPC, on the other hand, lets the client call server-defined procedures, passing along any relevant inputs and getting back a response. Inputs are type checked at runtime using validator libraries like Zod, and the types of the procedures are inferred from the server to the client. While you can make direct fetch calls to tRPC’s API, it includes a wrapper around React Query, a caching layer that provides an excellent user and developer experience.

  • trpc-openapi

    OpenAPI support for tRPC 🧩

  • There is an OpenAPI Extension for tRPC that can be used to create a more REST-like API from your procedures, and that in turn can be used for auto-generating documentation. But if my app needed to offer third-party API access, I would likely reach for GraphQL again.

  • graphql-code-generator

    A tool for generating code based on a GraphQL schema and GraphQL operations (query/mutation/subscription), with flexible support for custom plugins.

  • GraphQL Codegen generates frontend types and React hooks from our GraphQL request definitions.

  • Prisma

  • Prisma generates types from our database schema.
