I'm not a 20 year DBA greybeard veteran, but I'm comfortable enough to write schemas and queries by hand without any issue, and the entire time I wished I could do just that instead of using Ecto.
- sph 3y agoNo one stops you from writing raw SQL with Ecto. But good luck creating composable SQL with raw string interpolation, which Ecto excels at.
- zinclozenge 3y agoPR reviewers stopped me from writing raw SQL.
- malkosta 3y agoEcto queries are much closer to DB queries, when you use the macro syntax. But if you come from an ORM perspective and expect the same experience on Ecto, yes I agree it won't please you.
