What problem does it solve?

Kysely-based persistence in TypeScript backends often suffers from scattered typings and inconsistent query shapes. This guide consolidates best practices for defining stable Database interfaces, proper typing for queries, and safe migrations to reduce errors and drift.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Type-safe database schema design using Database interfaces and Generated/ColumnType-based typings.
• SQL-first query construction with explicit shapes for select, insert, update, joins, CTEs, and transactions.
• Migration lifecycle guidance and codegen references to manage schema evolution safely.

Quick Start

Define a Database interface and start building typed queries with selectFrom and insertInto to enforce type safety, then plan migrations for schema changes.
