Guest talk: Love and hate relationship between ORMs and Query Builders

Meeting from 7pm for a 7:30pm start

Love and hate relationship between ORMs and Query Builders

While some developers prefer writing their own SQL queries, others prefer to abstract the database with Object Relational Mappers. Can't we find a middle-ground that incorporates the benefits of both without any shortcomings?

Speaker bio

Romans Malinovskis is a PHP developer for 20 years and the creator of #1 open-source PHP UI framework. He will share his findings and concept for a better database abstraction that will include a hands-on demo of "Agile Data" - an open-source implementation of a proposed concept in PHP.
