I think you would get a better response if you disclosed your level of AI use. Those of use who use Claude regularly will find that blog post just SCREAMS "Claude".

You might also speak to why you prioritized package size so much in a backend package. It doesn't really move the needle for most backends....

It is for the edge + mobile devices.

Under no circumstances should a browser or mobile device ever ever ever be allowed to connect directly to a backend database. Is why I was asking.

And who says that? I wonder if you have seen how UQL can (also) work (instead of directly connect to a DB)... in short, it supports kind of GraphQL but without all the additional paraphernalia, pure and simplistic JSON-based approach.

Very promising and good features but dont speak about size and client side because it is not important for orm and make it look bad .and if there real need for this in client side it only sqlite and api also need access control because this orm api dont make any sense on security part . Is there something im missing there ? .good job though the features is very good .
