Very interested in what data engineers think about this project!
I am not a developer, but the founders (including Yury Selivanov, Python Core Developer, see also https://github.com/MagicStack) and the fact that these people have been investing in the project for four years already, make me think that EdgeDB can be an important project for the database world!

Some comments here, in my opinion, are missing the point. Saying "SQL is good enough, no need for EdgeQL" is like saying "C/C++/Java/... is good enough, no need for Rust/Kotlin/...".
EdgeQL is an explicit attempt to make not a new version of SQL, but a new language. It's about evolution, which is, again, explicitly noted. Saying "evolution is not needed" or "I don't want/need evolution" is strange to me. At the same time, giving constructive feedback is useful, as always.
Interesting project. Thank you for sharing. I noticed when using the try it out that the map on the right is not updated
when adding a new sub-level to one of the flowers. When downloading the html, the sublevel are correctly rendered. I have not tried the SVG download.
I'm running latest Firefox under Ubuntu 19.10

When the right side stopped updating the buttons at the top (usage, about etc.) also stopped responding. Both issues are gone after refreshing the page.
