I find the process of writing database access functions annoying, and for the most part, arbitrary and repetitive. ORM functionality that bakes types/accessors, migrations, graphQL, and even infrastructure into your codebase is where it’s at. The fact that you are writing your models once and automatically exposing them as types in any project’s language is a huge value. I don’t need the same language everywhere, but I want types that plug together without hassle.
Next generation “serverless” databases will fully abstract object mapping away. It’s tedious and arbitrary. Even indexing is relatively easy to automate. I am incredibly excited for what Apple is brewing up right now for developers.

- applecrazy 7y agoI think they're referring to this: https://developer.apple.com/icloud/cloudkit/ https://developer.apple.com/icloud/cloudkit/ It kind of flew under the radar, because it's not super clear how to use it from the landing page.
