An ORM object relational mapping is like a translation layer between the database and the language that you're working in. It provides ease of use in abstracting the kinds of things that you do with a database or working in a data layer, a day to day. But oftentimes, writing raw database queries isn't necessarily something that a lot of developers are doing. And I actually fell into this trap myself when I removed Mongoose from our stack - which we'll talk about soon.
In this episode of Syntax, Wes and Scott talk about the benefits and potential drawbacks of using an ORM on your next project, as well as what some of the popular ORMs are.
