02/07/2018, 12:28 PMPrisma is fantastic and takes a lot of the hard work out from writing all the sequelize. You can map straight from graphql to db. The product has a few bumps right now which the team are working hard to iron out. It's worth learning about the tech and getting a server and up running. I've really enjoyed it.
