  • MERN-template

    A website template using the MERN stack. It is geared towards Persistent Browser Based Games (think neopets), but is flexible enough for a number of different uses.

  • i use mariadb, but yes.

  • Prisma

    Next-generation ORM for Node.js & TypeScript | PostgreSQL, MySQL, MariaDB, SQL Server, SQLite, MongoDB and CockroachDB

  • I would say use a good ORM framework like Prisma to abstract the db away (almost) completely. Together with a modern React framework like Next.js or Remix you will have a very strong and flexible stack that is easy to use.
