Meet Mongoloquent

Mongoloquent is a lightweight MongoDB ORM library for Javascript/Typescript, inspired by the simplicity of Laravel Eloquent. It provides an intuitive and expressive syntax for working with MongoDB databases, making it easy to interact with your data in a Node.js environment. When using Mongoloquent, each database collection has a corresponding "Model" that is used to interact with that collection. In addition to retrieving records from the database collection, Mongoloquent models allow you to insert, update, and delete records from the collection as well.
