Building a Next.js + Turso on Vercel Demo App with @libsql/client — From the Official Guide to Migrating to Drizzle ORM

I built a small todo demo app with Next.js App Router, Turso (libSQL), and Vercel. The first iteration calls @libsql/client directly, and the second one swaps the data layer for Drizzle ORM. The post covers the local-vs-prod difference around embedded replicas, why I split the work into two PRs, and how I pinned versions for reproducibility.

Migrating the Next.js + Turso on Vercel Demo to @tursodatabase/* Packages — Leaving the Legacy @libsql/client Behind with Three-Mode Driver Selection

I migrated my earlier Next.js + Turso + Vercel demo from the now-legacy @libsql/client to the new @tursodatabase/* package family. This post walks through env-driven remote / local / sync driver selection, why I split syncTurso() into syncBefore() and syncAfter(), how I adopted Drizzle ORM 1.0.0-rc.1 and the new tursodatabase/database adapter, and the Next.js serverExternalPackages setting I needed to make Vercel happy.
