Gabriel Nordeborn from Arizon discusses the benefits of using ReScript, a fully typed programming language that compiles to JavaScript, with EdgeDB, an open-source database management system. He highlights how this combination can lead to scalable, maintainable, performant, and ergonomic code. The author also emphasizes the importance of pattern matching, async/await, type inference, and other features offered by ReScript that make it a powerful tool for developers. Furthermore, he explains how EdgeDB's strong type generation capabilities complement ReScript's robust type system to ensure safe data flow between applications and databases.
