About Sequelize

A promise-based ORM for Node.js that maps JavaScript objects to relational database tables.

Sequelize lets Node.js developers interact with relational databases—including Postgres, MySQL, MariaDB, SQLite, Microsoft SQL Server, DB2, and Snowflake—using JavaScript or TypeScript instead of raw SQL. It handles transactions, model associations, eager and lazy loading, and read replication. It suits backend developers who want a code-first approach to database access without writing SQL by hand.

Where to start

Install Sequelize alongside the dialect-specific driver for your database, then follow the official Getting Started guide at sequelize.org to define your first model and connect to a database.
