MariaDB support for sequelize

hello -

i thought i remembered hearing a webinar recently indicating that MariaDB is not only supporting node-sequelize, but also becoming a significant contributor.

Is this still true? i have heard some complaints about node-sequlize over the past couple of years about being bloated, clumsy to use, etc.

or is there a preferred node ORM to use with node? Knex? i am specifically interested in using FeathersJS with MariaDB.

There's a plan to expand the CI against connectors against the MariaDB ahead of release so regressions are found ahead of time.

sequelize seems to have a rather vibrant community of MariaDB contributors already based on the github pull requests for sequelize. MariaDB people we certainly contribute fixes or issues on projects as we notice and time permits.

I do notice that occasionally frameworks miss out on new features because they don't get noticed. I hope to expand this activity to try to audit the database adapters in many languages and determine which MariaDB features they don't support.

FeatherJS appears to use Knex, Sequalize or Objection (built on Knex).

I searched a bit more on Stack Overflow Survery 2021 for other NodeJS DB frameworks but there wasn't a significant answer. Perhaps we need to run a survey.

I think the NodeJS community is much more qualified to assess how well various ORMs perform and are easy to use.
