Suggestion for new category: "Database libraries" about javascript-risingstars HOT 3 CLOSED

Hello Nikolas @nikolasburk
Thank you for reaching us.
Actually Rising Stars is a kind of subset of Best of JS, a snapshot we make every year enhanced by some writings.
We pick and aggregate tags from Best of JS to create the categories displayed in the Rising Stars
So if you check Best of JS you will see that Prisma is also classified as an "ORM":

https://bestofjs.org/projects?tags=orm

I'm aware that ORM is not exactly the same thing as a "database library" but it's often associated.
Is the tagging correct, except GraphQL?
If yes, I can re-generate data and Prisma would be removed from the page.

Thank you for your understanding, tagging is really a difficult task (but that's maybe what makes Best of JS valuable).

Thank you so much for the quick reply and the explanation, that makes a lot of sense!

Actually I think the tagging looks great, as long as it contains "ORM" we should be fine! 🙂

Prisma does have some benefits (e.g. an integrated dataloader) when used to build a GraphQL API, so having the "GraphQL"-tag in addition to the others is still helpful IMO. If you're not responsible for the categories yourself, then never mind this issue 😄

Sorry Nikolas @nikolasburk for the misunderstanding, I am responsible for the category as I have created both Best of JS and the Rising Stars, so anything is possible, don't give up!

From what you have said, it makes sense to have the tag GraphQL associated to Prisma project.

About the tagging, I forgot to mention you can see it right from the Rising Stars rankings, when clicking on the project row to see the details, but maybe it's not enough obvious?

We could show the tags directly under the project description maybe but it would add a lot of clutter to the UI, I think.

About your initial question, we could have a category "DB library / ORM" but it's a very specific domain, so I'm not sure if it fits the concept of the Rising Stars.

Let me know if you have any idea to improve things, thank you again for your cooperation!
