- How to develop a emergency website using Prisma2 ORM, NodeJS, NextJS and deploy it in heroku
Speaker: Aris Markogiannakis
On those critical times, I took the chance to learn something new and tried to PRISMA 2, to create a small website, that shows where there are supplies [Bread, Pasta and ToiletRolls].
I will go through all the difficulties of developing the app as Prisma2 is still in development, and how to deploy the app in Heroku.
For the frontend I used NextJS that connects to a nodejs API (very simple) that uses the Prisma client.
