Choosing Between ORMs and Lightweight Approaches for Database Access
ORMs are beneficial for inferring and managing database operations based on declared structures and types, while also offering features like table creation and migrations. However, if you prefer a lighter approach that does not involve the ORM in every query or inferring columns based on types, you can opt for pre-generating solutions like Gorm, SQL C, or SQL X. These lightweight approaches are favored by some over ORMs for their efficiency in database access, avoiding unnecessary bloat. The choice between ORMs and lightweight solutions depends on individual preferences and specific use cases.
