Hi professionals,
Please i need you to direct me on Nextjs. I am currently learning it with the documentation but i am seriously confused when it comes to data fetching. I want to follow Nextjs recommended way of writing react so that i can write perfect code. I used to use firebase firestore for my react project. whilst learning Nextjs, i realized vercel provides its own database for Next.js Apps. I would like to learn it and use it with my Next js but i do not know sql. Please is it important i learn sql for this purpose or there is another way i could use the database without learning sql? And if it is necessary to learn it, could you suggest a good resource to learn it very fast?
Thanks in advance for your guidance

I like this one:
https://vercel.com/docs/storage/vercel-postgres/using-an-orm#prisma
So basically use vercels postgres with prisma. Prisma is an ORM so you do not have to learn sql. You just have to follow prismas docs for data fetching. Of course you could use other orms

(though i must say sql is an important skill to have. learn it.)
