Eloquent: Open-Source JavaScript ORM for Node.js

An open-source JavaScript ORM for Node.js that simplifies data access and manipulation from SQL databases with a clean syntax, supporting multiple database types and advanced features.

What is Eloquent?

Eloquent is an open-source object-relational mapper (ORM) that provides a beautiful and simple ActiveRecord implementation for working with your database in Node.js applications. Eloquent aims to make it easier to manage interactions with SQL databases like PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQLite, and Microsoft SQL Server by abstracting the raw SQL behind a concise and expressive syntax.

Some key features of Eloquent include:

• ActiveRecord implementation for interacting with databases using JavaScript models and objects
• Supports relations between models, including hasOne, hasMany, belongsTo, and more
• Powerful query builder for constructing SQL queries
• Schema builder for easily creating and modifying database schemas
• Migrations for simple transitions between database versions over time
• Polymorphic associations between models
• Built-in support for validation and dirty tracking

By encapsulating SQL queries, schema management, and more into simple JavaScript calls, Eloquent speeds up development while making your code easier to work with and maintain over time. Its elegant syntax and focus on conventions over configuration makes Eloquent a fantastic choice for new and existing Node.js applications that need to interface with SQL databases.
