   Thanks ojkelly - this looks super cool! I'll take a closer look tomorrow :-) Did you already use yoga and bindings? I think you might find it inspirational.

   Thanks James! More documentation to come for sure, but this section on Prisma architecture should already give you a good understanding https://www.prismagraphql.com/docs/reference/introduction/wh...

   Thanks Fischer! Prisma is an evolution of Graphcool Framework. Graphcool Framework is a complete backend as a service that enable you to create a database, configure permissions and write business logic that is deployed to serverless functi

   It's worth keeping in mind that GraphQL often finds itself in organisations that use multiple languages. A trend we have seen starting to emerge over the last 6 months is that backend teams write core business logic in languages like J

   It is my understanding that AppSync doesn't really support offline first yet. I would encourage you to keep an eye on efforts by the community such as Apollo repo you linked or the Khan Academy project mentioned in it. If you need some

   This is super cool. It looks very similar to graphql-binding https://github.com/graphql-binding/graphql-binding GraphQL Bindings are generated from a GraphQL schema and provides static typing in various languages. Righ

   In Berlin you can live in a decent apartment in the city center for 400 $ per month. The only reason this is not possible in SF is that you have so much low density crap even in walking distance of the center. This is insane.

   We are currently building the infrastructure for prismagraphql.com - a service that layers a GraphQL API over your existing databases. Lambda has some characteristics that would fit very well. We want to offer a service that: - has a very l

    Implementing a single resolver is not difficult. The trouble starts when you need your server to operate fast and efficiently on a broad range of query patterns. The switch from REST to GraphQL moves the burden of data fetching from client

    Thanks! Your experience match the feedback we are getting from a lot of people. With Prisma we are focusing on the core technology and exposing as much raw database power as possible. We will implement native PostgreSQL support in the futur

    Thanks a lot! It was awesome to see how Graphcool enabled so many frontend developers to get started with backend development. And it has been even more exciting to see these same developers move to a combination of Prisma and GraphQL bindi

    @hobofan Prisma will find its way into our Cloud offering over time. I can't commit to a timeline yet @LawJolla et al - We have seen tremendous growth in our Cloud business since the launch. Watch out for announcements in this space ov

    Thank you so much for putting your trust in Graphcool! The Graphcool Permission system is super interesting because it ads a surprising amount of expressive power to a declarative permission system. We actually brought over the idea to pris

    Thanks mrbarletta! Let me try to clear things up :-) The Graphcool Framework is a all-in-one framework that combines a GraphQL query engine (now called Prisma), serverless functions and managed hosting (Graphcool Cloud). Prisma is a major r

    Hi Turtlebits. I'm sorry you got stuck setting up docker on your local machine. We have put a lot of work into making sure local clusters "just work". It would be a big help if you could start a thread on the forum so we can

    That's a great question! There is great interest in supporting multiple kinds of databases and this is something we will actively work on in the coming months. SQL is a great general purpose data store, but there are certainly cases wh

    Thank you for the kind words hoodsy! Did you already have a chance to look into the new architecture for Prisma and GraphQL Bindings?

    I've been a long time fan of Linode. Digital Ocean is trying to move up the stack to compete with AWS, but they still have a long way to go. I am wondering if anybody is actually using their cloud-like features?

    PostGraphile is super cool. Especially if you like centralising logic at the database level. There are pros and cons to this approach. Personally I prefer keeping my database layer as simple as possible - no stored procedures, no queues and

    Developers run into all kinds of trouble when they use an orm without understanding the underlying execution model. Before starting Graphcool I lead the team that scaled a consumer site into the top 1000 visited sites globally. A well tuned
