FAQ

Does Joist support number id fields?

Joist supports both int and uuid primary key columns in the database, but currently only supports exposing them as strings (i.e. tagged ids like "a:1" or tagged-or-untagged uuids like "a:123e4567-e89b-12d3-a456-426614174000").

Supporting int columns exposed as JS numbers is doable, we just haven't needed it, see support number id columns.

What databases does Joist support?

Currently only Postgres; see support other databases.
