Thanks for sharing. Wasn't aware of EdgeDB and running through the interactive tutorial now. As a general novice when it comes to databases (only ever interacted with pretty mature database systems on the job, never implemented one myself) I've always struggled with a personal lack of intuition when it came to getting comfortable with SQL. So far that's not the case with EdgeDB from what I've seen. I'm excited to dig into this a more and try it out with a personal project I'm working on.

Thank you! Yeah, we spent significant amount of effort making the syntax of EdgeQL logical and predictable. Most of the time, queries can be read from top to bottom easily, even when you don't know EdgeQL.
