I also recommend looking at EdgeQL -- https://www.edgedb.com/showcase/edgeql https://www.edgedb.com/showcase/edgeql -- a new query language aimed to eliminate some of the SQL quirks.

- maximilianroos 4y agoI'm a huge fan of EdgeDB! Possibly our focus is a bit different — I see EdgeDB as primarily focused on transactional queries, whereas PRQL is very focused on analytical queries. PRQL doesn't do quite as much — e.g. we don't model the relationships between entities, which is less functional but more compatible. Feel free to reach out on Twitter if you think there's some way of us collaborating, or if you have any feedback or guidance for us.

That's true to an extent currently, but we actually envisioned EdgeQL to be a capable analytical query language too. We'll release EdgeDB 2.0 in a couple of weeks and it will feature a powerful GROUP BY statement (read more about it here [1]) and in 3.0 we might ship window functions (or some equivalent). With all that said PRQL looks cool! [1] https://github.com/edgedb/rfcs/blob/master/text/1009-group.rst https://github.com/edgedb/rfcs/blob/master/text/1009-group.r...
