Atlas is quite nice. I recently started using it in a typescript/node.js project (which was using liquibase before) and I find the DX to be great.

Primary additional feature I wish it had is support for manual migrations in addition to declarative hcl. So it would be great if I could have a unified changelog or migration list where some of the migrations were autogenerated from the diff in hcl and others were manually written (for things the hcl doesn't current support like procs and triggers) and I could rollback them together if needed.

I also wrote a simple code-generator[1] for typescript & zod to prevent having to duplicate the row types between atlas and ts, which others may find useful. It's still pretty early stage though.

declarative hcl

HCL?

Edit: Found it. “HashiCorp Configuration Language, a computer configuration language, used by Terraform.” It’s surprisingly hard to Google for.

HCL is the hashicorp configuration language [1] through which you define the database schema for atlas.
