I'm about to setup a new project where we are going to use Prisma in favor of TypeOrm. However, the
migrate
function is still in an experimental state, but is there a big risk of using it anyways?

Hey @DuckyDev 👋 you can use it without problems in non-critical applications but it's not recommended to use it in production at the moment. Note however that we're getting very close to an initial stable release! If you want to get early access to the upcoming versions, you can fill out this Typeform and let us know 🙂

Thanks for the reply @nikolasburk I have finished filling out the Typeform 😉

You're welcome! 🙌 Feel free to ping us again if you have any questions or issues 🙂

Thanks, one quick question. DO you know what the reason for not using postgres's module for generating uuid's and letting Prisma take care of that?
n
I think it's mostly for historical reasons to be honest, since the ID generation for CUIDs and UUIDs has been implemented in the Prisma query engine rather than on the DB-level from the very beginning. This issue has some more context: https://github.com/prisma/prisma/issues/1662

Thanks for the reply and the link! There is something to think about regarding the implementation 😉
n
Yeah, I fully agree that this is not ideal at the moment!

@nikolasburk are you a developer on the prisma project?
n
I am a developer but I'm not actively working on the Prisma tools 🙂 my job at Prisma is to help other developers be successful when they use our tooling 😄
