Reviewer scorecard
“SQL-like API means no magic ORM behavior. The schema is TypeScript, the queries are type-safe, and it's fast.”
“Remote caching and affected-only testing save enormous CI time. The project graph visualization is invaluable for large repos.”
“Lighter than Prisma with more SQL control. For developers who think in SQL, Drizzle is the obvious choice.”
“If you have a monorepo with more than 5 projects, Nx pays for itself in CI time savings on day one.”
“The ORM that feels like SQL is the right abstraction level. Drizzle is gaining on Prisma fast.”
“Monorepos are winning. Nx and Turborepo are making them practical at any scale.”
