Hi all,

I am building a new app in Next.js and Prisma, because I saw the hype online.

My previous application was raw SQL, which was fine, and I could use promises of types to help with type safety.

So, in my new project I have two files

types.ts

schema-prisma.ts

Let's say I have a type of Book

export type Book { id: string, pages: number; title: string }

Then, you have the same in Prisma to store books

Model Book { id: string , pages: number; title: string }

So, the second you make a change to your type of Book, like adding new data or making something null, you need to go back into the prisma schema to make it match.

What should I be doing?

AI suggests to delete types.ts and use the schema prisma as the types, is that correct?
