      <title>Gnome GJS - ActiveRecord ORM</title>

      <guid>https://dev.to/softwareishappiness/gnome-gjs-activerecord-orm-234e</guid>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;A lightweight, asynchronous ActiveRecord ORM designed for GJS (GNOME JavaScript) applications. Built natively on top of libgda (GNOME Data Access).&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Features&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Native GJS Integration: Uses standard GObject Introspection (imports.gi.Gda).&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Asynchronous API: All database operations return Promises to prevent blocking the UI thread.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Vendoring Ready: Distributed as standard ES Modules. Just drop the folder into your project's source.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Multiple Adapters: Designed to be extensible. Currently supports PostgreSQL out-of-the-box.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I need it and there wasn't one-- so I created it ;-) Maybe you need it too! :-D&lt;/p&gt;
