Reviewer scorecard
“Type-safe database queries with auto-generated client. Prisma Migrate and Studio round out the developer experience.”
“Write server code once, deploy anywhere. The preset system handles platform-specific deployment automatically.”
“Some performance concerns at extreme scale, but for 99% of apps the DX and type safety are worth it.”
“UnJS is building the invisible infrastructure of the JavaScript ecosystem. Nitro's portability is genuinely valuable.”
“Prisma Accelerate (edge caching) and Pulse (real-time) expand Prisma from ORM to data platform.”
“Universal server engines that abstract deployment targets are the right foundation for framework-agnostic backends.”
