   Hi I have some questions regarding this project:

   Hi Raj, thanks for the questions.

   1. As a suggestion, instead of just using INT(8), INTEGER, FLOAT, DECIMAL data types, wouldn't it be better if it was rust data types for example u8, u16, u32, u64, i8, i16, i32, i64, f32, f64 for numeric data types?

   This is a reasonable point but for INT([size]) we will need to do some fancy logic to restrict sizes and as such will need a new type. For other things, we need to store the values in a way that allows us to do logic on them as if they are all the same thing.
   This is why we use Value which, in the case of things like INTEGER -> I64 -> i64 does use rust's types; just wrapped into an enum.

   2. Is there a Discord server for multisql?

   Yup, we (I) use GlueSQL's:
   https://discord.com/invite/C6TDEgzDzY

   Further:
   Apologies for not seeing your issue earlier. I need to find a way to make it noted here but I have moved MultiSQL over to my GitLab instance and this repository (on GitHub) is just a mirror.

   Ah right mate understood :)

   Right I see mate.

   Is MultiSQL similar to GlueSQL?

   Apologies for not seeing your issue earlier. I need to find a way to make it noted here but I have moved MultiSQL over to my GitLab instance and this repository (on GitHub) is just a mirror.

   All good mate and thanks for letting me know =D

   They were originally the same and continue to share ambitions.

   Succinctly, briefly and incorrectly:

   • Glue is more stable and refined.
   • Multi has more functionality.
