Why We Chose Prisma for Our Database ORM

Why We Chose Prisma for Our Database ORM

When building our latest project, we needed a robust, type-safe way to interact with our MySQL database. After evaluating several options, we chose Prisma. Here's why:

Type Safety Above All

Prisma generates a fully type-safe client based on your database schema. This means no more guessing what a query will return.

const user = await prisma.user.findUnique({ where: { email: 'user@example.com' }, }) // 'user' is now a fully typed object!

Intuitive Schema

Defining your database schema in schema.prisma is clean and easy to understand. It serves as a single source of truth for your database structure.

Powerful Query Engine

Prisma's query engine is both powerful and easy to use, with features like filtering, pagination, and relation queries built-in.
