 ## Why Turbine?
 
-ORMs like Prisma fetch nested relations with N+1 queries -- one query per nesting level. Turbine uses Postgres `json_agg` to resolve the entire object graph in **a single SQL query**. The result is fewer round-trips, less connection overhead, and significantly lower latency.
+Turbine is a PostgreSQL-native TypeScript ORM with features no other ORM offers together: **cursor-based streaming** through nested relations, **typed error classes** with PostgreSQL constraint mapping, **pipeline batching** (N queries, 1 round-trip), **middleware**, and a driver-agnostic core that plugs into any pg-compatible pool so it runs on Vercel Edge, Cloudflare Workers, Deno Deploy, and similar environments. It resolves nested relations in a single SQL query using `json_agg` — an approach now shared by Prisma 7+ and Drizzle v2, but Turbine does it with 1 runtime dependency (`pg`) and ~110KB on npm.
 
-**One query instead of N+1.** When you write `db.users.findMany({ with: { posts: { with: { comments: true } } } })`, Turbine generates a single SQL statement that returns fully-nested JSON. Prisma sends 3 separate queries. Drizzle uses LATERAL joins which are competitive, but Turbine still wins on median latency.
+**One query for nested relations.** When you write `db.users.findMany({ with: { posts: { with: { comments: true } } } })`, Turbine generates a single SQL statement using correlated subqueries with `json_agg`. Modern ORMs like Prisma 7+ and Drizzle v2 use similar single-query approaches (LATERAL JOINs). Turbine's advantage is architectural simplicity: 1 dependency, no code generation DSL, and PostgreSQL-native depth.

+Turbine is fastest in every scenario. The advantage is largest on deep nesting (1.8x vs Prisma, up to 1.9x vs Drizzle) and single-record lookups (1.7x). All three ORMs now use single-query approaches for nested relations — Turbine's advantage comes from lower per-query overhead (minimal JS object allocation, no query plan compilation layer, direct pg driver access).
 
-Turbine is 2.6x faster than Drizzle and 4.2x faster than Prisma on nested queries at p50. Throughput is 3.8x higher than Drizzle and 6.3x higher than Prisma.

+
+## WHERE Operator Reference
+
+Every operator supported by the `where` clause. Operators compose freely with `AND`, `OR`, `NOT`, and the relation filters `some` / `every` / `none`.
+
+### Equality
+
+| Operator | Description | Example |
+|---|---|---|
+| literal | Implicit equality | `where: { email: 'a@b.com' }` |
+| `equals` | Explicit equality | `where: { email: { equals: 'a@b.com' } }` |
+| `not` | Inequality (or `not: null` for `IS NOT NULL`) | `where: { role: { not: 'admin' } }` |
+
+### Sets
+
+| Operator | Description | Example |
+|---|---|---|
+| `in` | Match any value in the array | `where: { id: { in: [1, 2, 3] } }` |
+| `notIn` | Match none of the values in the array | `where: { role: { notIn: ['banned', 'spam'] } }` |
+
+### Comparison
+
+| Operator | Description | Example |
+|---|---|---|
+| `gt` | Greater than | `where: { score: { gt: 100 } }` |
+| `gte` | Greater than or equal | `where: { score: { gte: 100 } }` |
+| `lt` | Less than | `where: { score: { lt: 100 } }` |
+| `lte` | Less than or equal | `where: { score: { lte: 100 } }` |
+
+### String
+
+| Operator | Description | Example |
+|---|---|---|
+| `contains` | Substring match (`LIKE %v%`) | `where: { title: { contains: 'sql' } }` |
+| `startsWith` | Prefix match (`LIKE v%`) | `where: { email: { startsWith: 'admin@' } }` |
+| `endsWith` | Suffix match (`LIKE %v`) | `where: { email: { endsWith: '@acme.com' } }` |
+| `mode: 'insensitive'` | Switch any string operator to `ILIKE` | `where: { title: { contains: 'SQL', mode: 'insensitive' } }` |
+
+LIKE wildcards in user input are escaped automatically — `%`, `_`, and `\` are treated as literals.
+
+### Relation filters
+
+Filter parent rows by predicates against their related child rows. Available on `hasMany` and `hasOne` relations.
+
+| Operator | Description | Example |
+|---|---|---|
+| `some` | At least one related row matches | `where: { posts: { some: { published: true } } }` |
+| `every` | Every related row matches | `where: { posts: { every: { published: true } } }` |
+| `none` | No related row matches | `where: { posts: { none: { published: false } } }` |
+
+### Array columns
+
+Operators for Postgres array columns (`text[]`, `int[]`, etc.).
+
+| Operator | Description | Example |
+|---|---|---|
+| `has` | Array contains the given element | `where: { tags: { has: 'sql' } }` |
+| `hasEvery` | Array contains every element in the list | `where: { tags: { hasEvery: ['sql', 'postgres'] } }` |
+| `hasSome` | Array contains at least one element from the list | `where: { tags: { hasSome: ['sql', 'mysql'] } }` |
+
+### Combinators
+
+| Operator | Description | Example |
+|---|---|---|
+| `AND` | All sub-clauses must match | `where: { AND: [{ orgId: 1 }, { role: 'admin' }] }` |
+| `OR` | Any sub-clause matches | `where: { OR: [{ role: 'admin' }, { role: 'owner' }] }` |
+| `NOT` | Negate a sub-clause | `where: { NOT: { role: 'banned' } }` |

+## Serverless / Edge
+
+Turbine's core is driver-agnostic: pass any pg-compatible pool to `TurbineConfig.pool` (or use the `turbineHttp()` factory) and Turbine runs on **Vercel Edge**, **Cloudflare Workers**, **Deno Deploy**, **Netlify Edge**, or any other environment where a direct TCP connection is unavailable. No new dependencies — install whichever driver you already use.
+
+### Neon Serverless (HTTP / WebSocket)
+
+```ts
+// app/api/users/route.ts
+import { Pool } from '@neondatabase/serverless';
+import { turbineHttp } from 'turbine-orm/serverless';
+import { schema } from '@/generated/turbine/metadata';

+const pool = new Pool({ connectionString: process.env.DATABASE_URL });
+const db = turbineHttp(pool, schema);

+export async function GET() {

+    with: { posts: { with: { comments: true } } },
+    limit: 10,
+  });
+  return Response.json(users);
+}
+```
+
+### Vercel Postgres
+
+```ts
+import { createPool } from '@vercel/postgres';
+import { turbineHttp } from 'turbine-orm/serverless';
+import { schema } from './generated/turbine/metadata.js';
+
+const pool = createPool({ connectionString: process.env.POSTGRES_URL });
+const db = turbineHttp(pool, schema);
+```
+
+### Supabase (direct Postgres — no HTTP proxy needed)
+
+```ts
+import { TurbineClient } from 'turbine-orm';
+import { schema } from './generated/turbine/metadata.js';
+
+const db = new TurbineClient({
+  connectionString: process.env.SUPABASE_DB_URL,
+  ssl: { rejectUnauthorized: false },
+}, schema);
+```
+
+### Cloudflare Workers
+
+```ts
+import { Pool } from '@neondatabase/serverless';
+import { turbineHttp } from 'turbine-orm/serverless';
+import { schema } from './generated/turbine/metadata';
+
+export default {
+  async fetch(req: Request, env: Env) {
+    const pool = new Pool({ connectionString: env.DATABASE_URL });
+    const db = turbineHttp(pool, schema);
+    const users = await db.table('users').findMany({ limit: 10 });
+    return Response.json(users);
+  },
+};
+```
+
+### Limitations on HTTP drivers
+
+- **Streaming cursors** (`findManyStream`) require `DECLARE CURSOR`, which most HTTP drivers don't support. Use `findMany` with `limit` + pagination instead.
+- **LISTEN/NOTIFY** is not available over HTTP.
+- Transactions work but hold an HTTP connection for their duration — keep them short.
+
+When Turbine receives an external pool, `db.disconnect()` is a no-op: the caller owns the pool's lifecycle.

+## Type Mapping
+
+Turbine maps Postgres types to TypeScript:
+
+| Postgres | TypeScript | Notes |
+|---|---|---|
+| `int2`, `int4`, `float4`, `float8` | `number` | Standard numeric types |
+| `int8` / `bigint` | `number` | Values > `Number.MAX_SAFE_INTEGER` (2^53 - 1) are returned as `string` at runtime to avoid precision loss. This affects < 0.01% of use cases (auto-increment IDs, counts, etc. are all safe). |
+| `numeric`, `money` | `string` | Arbitrary precision — kept as string to avoid JS float issues |
+| `text`, `varchar`, `uuid`, `citext` | `string` | |
+| `timestamptz`, `timestamp`, `date` | `Date` | |
+| `boolean` | `boolean` | |
+| `json`, `jsonb` | `unknown` | |
+| `bytea` | `Buffer` | |
+| Array types | `T[]` | e.g. `_text` → `string[]` |
+
+## Comparison
+
+| | **Turbine** | **Prisma** | **Drizzle** | **Kysely** |
+|---|---|---|---|---|
+| **Nested relations** | 1 query (`json_agg`) | 1 query (LATERAL JOIN + json_agg, since v5.8) | 1 query (LATERAL JOINs) | Manual (`jsonArrayFrom`) |
+| **API style** | `findMany`, `with` | `findMany`, `include` | SQL-like + relational | SQL builder |
+| **Schema** | TypeScript | Custom DSL (`.prisma`) | TypeScript | Manual interfaces |
+| **Runtime deps** | 1 (`pg`) | `@prisma/client` + adapter | 0 | 0 |
+| **Multi-DB** | PostgreSQL only | PG, MySQL, SQLite, MSSQL | PG, MySQL, SQLite | PG, MySQL, SQLite |
+| **Code generation** | `turbine generate` | `prisma generate` | Not needed | Not needed |
+
+All three ORMs now use single-query approaches for nested relations. Turbine uses correlated subqueries with `json_agg`, Prisma 7 uses LATERAL JOIN + `json_agg`, and Drizzle uses LATERAL JOINs. Turbine is 1.4–1.9x faster due to lower per-query overhead — minimal JS object allocation, no query plan compilation layer, and direct pg driver access. See [Benchmarks](#benchmarks) for full results.
+
+## Limitations
+
+Turbine is focused and opinionated. Here's what it doesn't do:
+
+- **PostgreSQL only.** No MySQL, SQLite, or MSSQL. This is by design — the `json_agg` approach is PostgreSQL-specific, and going deep on one database enables the performance advantage.
+- **No full-text search operators.** TSVECTOR/TSQUERY are not exposed in the query builder. Use `db.raw` for full-text queries.
+- **Large nested result sets.** `json_agg` builds the entire JSON array in PostgreSQL memory. For relations with 10K+ rows, always use `limit` in your `with` clause to cap the aggregation size.
+- **No admin UI.** Turbine Studio is planned but not yet available.
+
+## Examples
+
+- **[Next.js](./examples/nextjs/)** — Server-rendered app with nested relations, streaming, and live code demos
+- **[Neon Edge](./examples/neon-edge/)** — Vercel Edge route handler talking to Neon over HTTP via `@neondatabase/serverless`
+- **[Vercel Postgres](./examples/vercel-postgres/)** — Next.js app router route handler on `@vercel/postgres`
+- **[Cloudflare Worker](./examples/cloudflare-worker/)** — Worker `fetch` handler with `pg` over Cloudflare Hyperdrive
+- **[Supabase](./examples/supabase/)** — Standalone script over the standard `pg` driver against Supabase
