Congrats!

I see that Kretes uses Sqorn [1] for talking to the database.

I really like the looks of Sqorn, however iiuc, it doesn't support typescript right?

How does that piece work?

Hello Tanmai :) Yes, exactly. It's not typed and also not actively maintained. The goal is to have a fully typed query builder that's adapted only to PostgreSQL. Here's the preliminary work for that [1]. I would also like to find a way to fully integrate with Hasura

Hey Zaiste! I missed your name as OP :)

That looks like a really good start. Do you think it'll end up looking like JOOQ? Would be interesting to see how you get things like aggregations and perhaps even things like: `SELECT 1, 'hello'` to work. That would be the ultimate test!

Happy to help with any Hasura integrations whenever you're ready too! Let's chat again soon. :)

Yes, our discussion a few weeks ago pushed me further to explore this topic. JOOQ is exactly what I'm looking for JavaScript/TypeScript. It's just a matter of having enough time ;)

Thanks for the proposition regarding Hasura integration. Happy to chat soon. Good luck with everything.

That Postgres query library could be the most broadly useful part of the whole stack. Also looks like a big job! Best of luck!
