Reviewer scorecard
“Vendor lock-in concerns. Hard to migrate once you're committed.”
“tRPC proved that type-safe APIs don't need schemas or code generation. The idea is being adopted everywhere.”
“The API design is thoughtful. Integrates well with existing stacks.”
“Types from server to client with zero code generation. The DX is magical — change a server type, client updates instantly.”
