Thank you for showcasing!

For me, fast prototyping is everything. Do if I have a YAML file that gets 
converted into `CREATE TABLE` behind the scenes, then I have to worry about how 
to write the YAML file in such a way to produce the `CREATE TABLE` statements I 
know I need. This is friction. I am much better off just writing the 
statements. Now already writing app and frontend code instead of wondering 
whether the SQL generator will support tuning my indexes.

I don't mean to knock your work, many people love ORMs and writing a good one 
is the hardest work in the world- so more power to you! (And your users).

To even consider using an ORM these days, it would need to be ablee to derive 
all generated code from hand-created database tables. Then it would have to 
additionally support creating arbitrary object tree structures from arbitrary 
SQL queries. I found that if you count debugging and quickly making 
modifications responding to user needs, flexibility- maximally detailed 
control- is the more critical factor than automation to get results quickly.
