I believe this is normally called innovation :-P

The way I think about this is that the old generation of DB tools make it possible for application developers to use databases. With Prisma we want to make it a delight. There are an order of magnitude more application developers today than

This is a really interesting area with lots of development. Have you tried https://redwoodjs.com/ or https://blitzjs.com/ ? They both build on Prisma core data abstractions and provide a more full-featured

It certainly make ssense to use Prisma with an existing database. In fact, Prisma is able to introspect your database and create a typesafe data access client for you. If you give it a try and have a database handy, I bet you can have it up

Thank you for writing this up hbrundage - that's a pretty good summary. I'm the co-founder of Prisma, so should be able to answer some of your questions :-) Prisma has a Query Engine written in Rust, and a language binding for eac

- ORMs traditionally map classes to tables. - Prisma maps queries to structural types. This is a key distinction that the community will need to spend some time to really get an intuitive understanding for. I think you will realise that man

I should add that the Rust community has been extraordinarily welcoming, and our existing Scala engineers were able to relatively quickly become proficient in Rust. Huge shoutout to everyone working on Rust Async, especially the Berlin crew

We did a similar thing with a Scala -> Rust rewrite for the http://prisma.io query engine. By rewriting small components and integrating them into the existing project using Javas native interface, our small team of 5 develop

We do, but it is still very early days for us. We are compiling a static binary from Scala and linking a few Rust libraries. It's a pretty interesting setup :-)

I forgot to say - We have experience relocating candidates from US and can help cover costs and navigate the visa process. If you are tired of the SF rat race, then Berlin has a lot to offer :-)

In Denmark we have a national payment system called Dankort. All issued Visa cards also work as Dankort. Transaction fees on Dankort is one tenth of visa, and all payment terminals default to Dankort. This saves Danish retail a lot of money

Happy to provide a more thorough answer :-) You should think of Prisma as the data layer for your applications. If you look at large tech companies who are typically ahead of the status quo for how to build applications, then you see that t

Hi Tirumari :-) ( https://twitter.com/Tirumarai ) As you work at Hasura I assume you are aware that Prisma does work with existing postgres databases. You can look up the documentation for introspecting an existing database a

This sounds like a super interesting approach Adamkl! Do you have something written up about this somewhere?
143.
by sorenbs 8y ago
Correct, you are running at least two separate GraphQL APIs. If you look at the architecture of modern tech companies they are already moving in this direction. Facebook has TAO for data access, and twitter has Strato: https://ab

Co-author of the tutorial and founder of prisma here. Adamkl is right, you are missing a layer in your application. postgraphile, prisma and hasura turn your database into a graphql api, but you don't want to expose that directly. Grap

As murdockq mentions, the recommended approach is to use GraphQL Bindings to create a lightweight GraphQL server that handles authentication and authorization. The combination of bindings and GraphQL Shield (which is awesome, btw - you shou

There is nothing in the GraphQL ecosystem that makes this as seamless as Realm. AppSync has rudimentary support, which is basically a fork of the Apollo Client as far as I understand it. There is also some movement in the open source ecosys

I'm looking forward to see how this impacts existing wifi mesh routers like Eero and Orbi. Hopefully this standard will make good wifi routers more mainstream.

Take a look at pattern matching in other languages like Scala. I find the proposed syntax strikes a great balance between being familiar (for people familiar with Scala etc) and using well understood js structures (destructoring) Would love
