Which is better for Node.js: TypeORM or Sequelize?

I'm trying to decide between TypeORM and Sequelize for my Node.js project. Which one should I choose?

Both TypeORM and Sequelize are popular ORM libraries for Node.js, but they have different strengths. TypeORM is great for TypeScript support and has a more modern approach, while Sequelize is more established and has a larger community.

What are the main differences in terms of features?

TypeORM supports both Active Record and Data Mapper patterns, while Sequelize primarily uses Active Record. TypeORM also has better support for complex queries and relationships.

How about performance? Is one faster than the other?

Performance can vary based on the use case, but generally, TypeORM is optimized for TypeScript and can be faster in certain scenarios. However, Sequelize has been around longer and is well-optimized for many common tasks.

Can you give me an example of how to set up a simple model in both?

Sure! In TypeORM, you define an entity class with decorators, while in Sequelize, you define a model using the sequelize.define method. Would you like to see code examples?
