Hey hey prisma rainbow I’ve co-created a pretty cool typescript library for full-stack javascripters which works amazingly well with prisma. It’s a data layer called tRPC which gives you similar capabilities to blitzjs’ “*zero api data layer*” except it’s not tied to React or Next.js & does not require any code generation or watchers. You can add it to your existing old project to supercharge your API creation. You get the capabilities of using type-safe API resolvers from your backend straight into your React / React Native / [..] frontend. The magic is all in the TypeScript compiler. 🧙‍♂️ I’ve created 3 libs: one for node, one for any client (using

fetch()

), & one for react which just adds type safe sugar from your backend onto react-query. If anyone has any questions or feedback, feel free to DM me! 👉 Have a look at https://trpc.io 👈

Was hoping to see this type of thing soon https://twitter.com/thdxr/status/1362092869264228355

i’ve pushed a new website on trpc.io now that’s a bit bit easier to browse than a massive github readme

curious how you implemented this without codegen

generics code like this https://github.com/trpc/trpc/blob/d1178866cb64cd051223d91df0205510f5d6cabf/packages/server/src/router.ts#L263-L283

Yeah I'm working on something similar through use of generics for jsonapi

just use trpc instead 🙂

But I was wondering if I had to eventually codegen since I've created some complex typing that the language server doesn't display super well
