Have been building drawDB[1] for a while now. It's a database schema visualizer. Currently working on adding support for oracle databases. Wrote a parser[2] to allow importing from oracle sql. Have been struggling with motivation though, the pieces are pretty much there but I've been procrastinating on putting it all together. This has been my main side project for almost 2 years now.. I miss the feeling of novelty.. but can't come up with something worth building..idk

Throughout this guide I will refer to "standard configuration". This is the typical setup encountered when we see TRPC integrated into NextJS. I am using the default configuration provided by T3 Stack. It has become the de facto standard for TRPC integration and can be taken as a best practices example.

What's the best skeleton theme to build your own theme on in 2024, that supports Full site editing, Gutenberg etc?
