2 years ago Interesting feedback from @Auenc on the API module that may fit into this simulation well:
Thinking about the introduction to prisma - I'm not sure how possible this is, might need a little bit of a spike to try it out, but perhaps a nice way of introducing fetching data/queries etc using prisma could be to have an exercise that is a basic CRUD API writing using the pg library (but having the schema and tables built via prisma) and have the students refactor each endpoint using the prisma client? I think it could be a nice way of introducing the benefits of using an ORM, especially showing off how much less lines of code it is to do the DB interactions. I think a potential downside might be that it would involve refactoring work, although this could be extra practice in working within existing code
