Drizzle ORM
Lightweight TypeScript SQL ORM.
Headless TypeScript ORM that feels like SQL — lightweight, fast, and perfect for edge runtimes.
About Drizzle ORM
Drizzle ORM is a TypeScript-first ORM that takes a different philosophy than Prisma: instead of abstracting SQL, it embraces it. Drizzle's query builder closely mirrors SQL syntax, making queries feel natural and giving developers full control with type safety.
Drizzle is extremely lightweight (no heavy abstractions), works with edge runtimes (Cloudflare Workers, Vercel Edge, Deno), and generates zero-overhead SQL at compile time. Drizzle Kit provides schema migrations, and Drizzle Studio offers a visual database browser.
For developers who want type-safe SQL without magic, who work at the edge, or who have performance-critical applications where every kilobyte counts, Drizzle has become the preferred ORM in the modern TypeScript ecosystem.
