Never seen edgedb before. Ill have a look, thanks for the tip.
I usually find the docs always giving a super trivial example. Like a join. Joins are the bread and butter of database work, and design. You model your data and write queries that operate on it.
When it comes to real-world things, i usually do complex reports that include joins from aggregated sets on some condition. Here is where the orms fail big time. Edgedb seems to be build on postgres, so does it come with the same power or is the new syntax limited in some way?
- 1st1 5y ago> Edgedb seems to be build on postgres, so does it come with the same power Our goal with EdgeQL (the query language of EdgeDB) is to make it more powerful than SQL. There are a few things that we're still missing, but we're getting there. What makes EdgeQL interesting is that it's functional in its nature, making it fully composable. So both simple queries and complex queries (deeply nested subqueries, aggregates, etc) work just fine.
