It really does not need runtime string parsing unless you want to do some kinds of manipulation. I built Notion’s sql`…` literal and “all” it does is concat the string parts arrays and concat the argument arrays so you can pass { query: string, args: PostgresArg[] } to the database. The database is the only one who needs to parse the query string.

As for syntax highlighting, that’s available in VS Code, we auto install the appropriate extension.
