In this project I wanted to try TRPC which is an awesome tool to make type safe calls to your backend, the only requirement is that both need to be written in typescript. In addtion to TRPC I used superjson which gives me the hability to send dates, hashmaps or other Javascript/Typescript exclusive data structures through the wire to the server and back.

Also, I wanted to try Planetscale, a Database as a Service provider, which came out to be the most unique database service I have ever used. The free tier is incredibly generous and the way they structure each DB migration as a git diff is pretty nifty.

Both technologies are absolutely awesome and I will for sure use them again.

Feel free to look around the project, If you want to run it, you should add the environment variables required for the database connection and have the planetscale cli installed in your system.
