Challenges Overcome 🎯#

  1. OR WHERE Clauses: Fixed to properly handle OR conditions in WHERE
  2. Parameter Ordering: Ensured consistent parameter naming
  3. Null Handling: Proper handling of optional fields in entities
  4. Type Safety: Balanced type safety with flexibility

Best Practices Established 📚#

  1. Always use parameterized queries
  2. Test SQL generation without database
  3. Document with examples
  4. Maintain backward compatibility
  5. Use specific column selection
  6. Always paginate large results
  7. Use transactions for related operations

Team Notes#
