@hooopo do you have ideas about the progress when we can close this issue and mark the support of Active Record as delivered?

[hooopo]

The current version is delivered, but it needs long-term maintenance, and many things need to be improved

[tisonkun]

@hooopo get it. We can track further issues on that repo instead. For confirming we delivered a minimal viable product, could you comment below an example or demo for running TiDB with Active Record? I think then we can close this issue as finished.

This is demo app using activerecord-tidb-adapter: https://github.com/hooopo/activerecord-tidb-adapter-demo

@hooopo Thanks! I'm going to close this one and create an issue on https://github.com/pingcap/activerecord-tidb-adapter asking for a brief tutorial on how to build the demo app.
