Now, let's proceed with dealing with the database and for that we are going to use an ORM that is Object Relational Mapper. ORM is basically the tool which allows you to connect the application with a database with ease. You might have worked with ORMs like SQLite, Mongoose, MySQL 2 etc. And Prisma is one such ORM which can be used for databases like MySQL, SQLite, MongoDB, PostgreSQL etc. And in this section, we are going to learn all about using Prisma with SQLite database and Next.js. We will work on the existing application where we had the products page where all the products were displayed and we could add, edit and delete a product as well.
