Check out the discussion of this post on Hacker News . See the recording of the live launch event on YouTube . Today, after several years of building (and a long list of prereleases) we are extremely proud to announce the release of EdgeDB 1.0, the first open source, graph-relational database! 🎊 EdgeDB is built on an extension of the relational data model that we call the graph-relational model . This model completely eliminates the object-relational impedance mismatch while retaining the solid basis of and performance of the classic relational model. This makes EdgeDB an ideal database for application development. The developer experience of using the existing databases is not good enough…from edgedb.com

Hi there! This is Yury, a co-founder. We've been busy for a while building EdgeDB Cloud and now it's finally here. EdgeDB Cloud is pretty cool and takes full advantage of our database. You get declarative schema, strict typing throughout, great performance, a query language that's best of GraphQL & SQL, and many many other perks. The Cloud itself is quite unique because of EdgeDB. Our query language gives you composability - so you can fetch everything for your page or API endpoint in one network request. And our protocol and client libraries give you auto recovery on network errors,…

Talanoa▲339Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…
