Yoda Response: In my projects, I have primarily used MongoDB as the database solution, particularly for its flexibility and scalability as a NoSQL database. For instance, in the MERN Image Generation Website project, I used Mongoose, an ODM (Object Data Modeling) library for MongoDB, to create schemas and models. This made it easier to define the structure of my data and interact with the database in a more organized manner.

Regarding ORM tools, while I primarily used Mongoose for MongoDB, I also have experience with Prisma ORM. Prisma is particularly beneficial because it allows writing type-safe queries and can be used with various databases, providing flexibility for future projects. The main advantage of using ORM tools like Mongoose and Prisma is that they abstract away much of the complexity involved in database interactions, making it easier to perform CRUD operations and ensuring that the data conforms to the defined schema.

Overall, integrating these tools helped streamline the development process, making database design and interaction more efficient and less error-prone.
