Building scalable backend systems often means dealing with repetitive database logic—something I’ve personally faced while working extensively with Node.js and MySQL.
Hi, I’m Jay Chauhan, and over time, I realized that handling MySQL operations in Node.js—like managing connections, writing queries, and handling errors—was taking more effort than it should.
Instead of relying on heavy ORMs or rewriting the same boilerplate code across projects, I decided to build a simpler solution.
That’s how @morphsync/mysql-db was created—a lightweight, developer-friendly package designed to simplify MySQL interactions while keeping performance and flexibility intact.
