Meet Prisma PHP v3 🚀

June 19, 2025 · by Abraham Jefferson

What’s New in v3?

1. Wave 2.0 – Next-Gen Reactivity 🌊

• Finer-grained updates: Only the exact DOM nodes that change will re-render.
• Dependency tracking: No more stale computations; automatic cleanup of unused effects.
• Batching & scheduling: Group updates within animation frames for jank-free UIs.

“Upgrading from v2→v3 felt like switching from a bicycle to a rocket!” — Early adopter feedback

2. Enhanced VSCode Extension 🔧

• JSX-style PHPX validation: Instant linting of <Component /> tags.
• Attribute IntelliSense: Auto-complete for all built-in Prisma PHP props (pp-bind, pp-if, pp-fetch, …).
• Error code insights: Click on an error to jump to docs or see quick-fix suggestions.

3. Enterprise ACL & Permissions 🛡️

Built-in SQL schema and helper methods: Auth->signIn($data, ?string $tokenValidity = null)
Auth->signOut(?string $redirect = null)
UI component <PermissionManager /> for drag-and-drop role assignment.

4. Performance Optimizations ⚡

• Lazy loading of dynamic modules via PPHP Suspense.
• Tree-shaking on your production bundle to keep output under 30 KB.
• Database queries now support createMany & upsertMany natively, slashing round-trips.

Upgrading from v2

1. Install

   npx pp update project

2. Rebuild your assets

   npm run dev

3. Adjust your imports

   Wave API remains backwards-compatible; you can keep existing state(), effect(), and ref() calls.
   Update any custom VSCode snippets to point to extension v2.0.

What’s Next?

We’re already planning v3.1, with:

• Prisma ORM Improvement
• Expanded premium UI themes
• Community-driven plugin marketplace

Stay tuned—and thank you for being part of our journey! If you have questions or want to contribute, head over to our GitHub repo.

✨ Happy coding!
