Prisma ORM Manifesto: Clarity and Collaboration
This manifesto outlines Prisma’s vision for the future: addressing key challenges, setting clear priorities, and empowering collaboration to build a better experience for our community.
Prisma has come a long way, and we’re proud of what we’ve achieved together. From Accelerate and Pulse to TypedSQL and Prisma Postgres, the tools we’ve built have grown alongside an incredible community of developers who rely on Prisma every day.
But as the scope of Prisma ORM has expanded, we’ve faced challenges in governance, issue management, and communication. Priorities haven’t always been clear, deadlines haven’t been consistently met, and over time, we’ve accumulated 3.2k open issues and a backlog of preview features stretching back years.
This manifesto is a declaration of what we’re going to do differently—how we’ll set clear priorities, manage our work more effectively, and involve you, our community, every step of the way. If you feel something important isn’t represented here, open a discussion—we’re listening.
