MikroORM 5.8 Released — When MikroORM is mentioned anywhere, I always see folks saying it’s great and deserves more attention, so I’m doing my bit to help 😁 It’s an ORM for Node based around Data Mapper, Unit of Work (hello implicit transactions and change detection!) and Identity Map patterns, with support for both SQL and NoSQL databases and it’ll even analyze your code for types to help you create entities more easily.

Yagiz Nizipli of Node’s performance team invites anyone interested in helping work on Node’s performance to come along to one of their Zoom meetings. He also notes that 🐦 no-one on the team is paid for their work in response to criticism and claims to the contrary on Twitter/X this week.
