I've been thinking about this problem a lot, CRUDs, GraphQL,ORMs, Models etc. Mostly in the "CRUD-Like" environment. I have been thinking about a "client side SQL impl".

In most CRUD's we currently have on the backend layers and layers of software with ORMS, frameworks etc, and it all boils down to "Writing/Generating the correct(good-enough) SQL"

We now have added stuff like GraphQL, which if you squint hard enough (ok very hard) can be seen as being a SQL alternative(Language to get the actual data).

Maybe SQL + "GraphQL-Like" Layers should "evolve" into ONE common "data scripting language" ?

Maybe we have something like "ClientSide-SQL" - which can be a subset of ServerSide-SQL ?

We need the "TypeScript" of "data-querying" which can be run on the server,client, moon and my device, where one can also only define any "Types" ONCE.

Anywhoo - I think there is still a lot to be done, researched and discovered in this section of CS :)
