Practical, step-by-step guides for building with Prisma ORM and deploying to Prisma Compute. Every command in a published guide was run end to end before it landed here. The Prisma ORM 7 guides remain available for Prisma ORM 7 projects.

Frameworks
Each framework guide builds a working app with Prisma ORM, initializes the database, and ends with your data rendering:
Runtimes
Deployment
Build on Compute
Guides that build a complete app and deploy it to Prisma Compute, with or without Prisma ORM:
Database
Switch to Prisma ORM
Integrations
Upgrading
Still on Prisma ORM 7
The authentication guides and the remaining integration and Prisma Postgres guides in the sidebar are written for Prisma ORM 7 and carry a note at the top saying so. Some wait on third-party adapters that still require Prisma Client; the rest land here as they are ported. Cloudflare D1 and the Accelerate integrations live under the Prisma ORM 7 guides only.
