As far as declarative being "simpler" I would say, source code wise, architecture wise, things-that-can-go-wrong-wise (i.e., an configurational error message in Elixir can be an elixir problem, or a SQLA problem, or both, its hard to trace), as well as that you only have to learn one paradigm, not two, in order to use it. Though on the last point perhaps Elixir is finally getting to the point where you really don't need to know SQLA configuration in order to use it. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sqlalchemy" group.
