pGenie is a SQL-first code generation tool for PostgreSQL that validates SQL, manages indexes, and generates type-safe client SDKs in Haskell, Rust, and Java. It works by analyzing plain SQL migrations and queries to produce correct-by-construction APIs without manual boilerplate. The tool helps prevent production issues and accelerates development by keeping SQL as the source of truth.
Background
Database tooling has evolved from ORMs to more SQL-native approaches that maintain SQL as the source of truth while automating type-safe client generation. PostgreSQL remains one of the most popular relational databases with strong type system capabilities.
