Only backend to database. This is talking about typesafe from database - backend - frontend.

Yes, and that’s an architectural choice you’re making.

Instead of using all the consistencies provided in the database process - including types, but also date/time, constraints, transactions, triggers etc. you are exiting the system and losing all guarantees.

This system also doesn’t solve that problem.

You can write raw sql and use the "describe" clause in script, and then generate code with the result. This gives full db-backend-frontend type safety with raw sql queries
