Never Write an API Schema Again

If you are using TypeScript on the backend (Node/Next.js) and TypeScript on the frontend, using REST or GraphQL manually is a waste of time. Enter tRPC. This item demonstrates a setup where your backend function is your API endpoint. The Magic: If you change a database column name in your backend, your frontend code immediately turns red (error) in VS Code. No Swagger: You don't need API documentation tools because the code documents itself. Speed: Autocomplete on the frontend for backend data is a game-changer for development speed. I’ve attached a starter repo link for a Next.js + tRPC + Prisma stack. It’s the closest thing to "cheating" in web development right now.
