For the last year, I've been working on a query language that aims to replace SQL and data frame libraries. It's continuation of my work on PRQL and EdgeQL.

Now I need feedback on usability, ergonomics and overall design. Read trough the examples, check out the CLI & tell me what could be better.

Looks like an ORM? I used to use these a lot but these days I just write SQL. Far too many performance issues and fighting with a library to do what I could just write in SQL in 5 mins. Type safety doesn't really seem like a big sell here. Most SQL libs already let you "getInt()".
