If you just want things to work, above your model code (class User < 
Sequel::Model) add:

DB.create_table?(:users) do
  primary_key :id
  String :name
end

This will create the users table if it does not already exist.

Unfortunately, I don't think we have documentation aimed at starting 
completely from scratch.  The migrations guide 
(http://sequel.jeremyevans.net/rdoc/files/doc/migration_rdoc.html) explains 
how migrations work, but assumes some knowledge and is more suited to 
reference than teaching.

If anyone wants to help out the project and send in a pull request for a 
basic "starting from scratch" guide, I would be grateful.

Thanks,
Jeremy
