About Gel
Tired of ORMs and databases? It's time to Gel.
Hey, Pythonistas!
If you ever used uvloop or asyncpg, or ever used async/await syntax in Python, or enjoyed Python syntax highlighting on GitHub or in your IDE... you've already used our stuff! We've been continuously contributing to the ecosystem for more than a decade, have numerous PEPs and billions of downloads of our packages on PyPI.
But we're coming to this EuroPython with a new thing - Gel (some you might know it by name EdgeDB). Gel has always been about removing friction between your code and your database. We've all been there: fighting with a clunky ORM, writing awkward joins, or spending a day hunting down an N+1 query. You love Python for its elegance, so why should your database feel like a chore?
In time for this EuroPython we'll be announcing a new Gel<>Python integration:
First-class FastAPI support: API generation and schema migrations integrated in fastapi dev flow.
Dare we say, a truly Pythonic ORM-like type-safe data API and query builder with deep Pydantic integration.
Integrated Auth and AI -- build a product in one day.
Effortless local and cloud development, MCP and LSP to make you write your code like brrrr....
And of course core Gel benefits: Pythonic data model, thoughtful APIs, performance, and DX.
Ready to see for yourself?
Stop compromising between powerful features and a great developer experience. With Gel, you get both.
