Prisma is an open-source database toolkit that makes it easy for developers to reason about their data and how they access it. It is used to query a database inside a Node.js or TypeScript application.
The Prisma schema is the single source of truth for your database schema. It describes your database tables, columns, and relations. It also defines which operations are available on your data.
Prisma Client is an auto-generated and type-safe query builder for Node.js & TypeScript. It's used as an alternative to writing plain SQL, or using another database access tool such as SQL query builders (e.g. SQLAlchemy) or ORMs (e.g. TypeORM).
- Typescript (for type safety)
- Next.js (for server-side rendering)
- Prisma (for database access)
- Node.js (for running scripts)
- SWR (for data fetching)
- Hot-Toast (for toast notifications)
- Next-Auth (for authentication)
- Axios (for making HTTP requests)
- React-Icons (for icons)
- Zustand (for state management)
- Bcrypt (for hashing passwords)
- Prisma-Adapter (for next-auth configuration)
- Date-fns (for manipulating dates)
- Dropzone (for turns HTML element)
- React-Spinners (for a collection of loading)
The easiest way to deploy your Next.js app is to use the Vercel Platform from the creators of Next.js.
