How do I set up a Sequelize model in my Node.js application?

To set up a Sequelize model, first install Sequelize and the database driver. Then, define your model using the Sequelize.define method.

Can you show me an example of a simple User model?

Sure! Here's a basic example:

const { Model, DataTypes } = require('sequelize');
const sequelize = new Sequelize('database', 'username', 'password', {
  host: 'localhost',
  dialect: 'mysql'
});

class User extends Model {}
User.init({
  username: DataTypes.STRING,
  password: DataTypes.STRING,
}, { sequelize, modelName: 'user' });

What do I need to do after defining the model?

After defining the model, you should sync it with the database using sequelize.sync(), and then you can start creating, reading, updating, and deleting records.
