bullseye VS Marten

Checkout bullseye https://github.com/adamralph/bullseye

I used to use Cake and contributed but now bullseye is what makes sense https://github.com/adamralph/bullseye

I personally use Bullseye and SimpleExec instead of Nuke. I really like sticking to "normal" C#. I used Cake before but never liked it.

I personally advocate Bullseye in combination with SimpleExec as a build tool for .NET projects due to its sheer simplicity by providing a bare bones API to define the tasks and their dependent tasks in plain C# code. Both these libraries are build by Adam Ralph. It does not enforce any specific model or structure to write your build tasks. When someone runs through the build script, it is fairly straight forward to understand whats going on. We use this build tool setup for Marten for both local dev and CI build tasks and has worked well so far. Also many OSS projects have adopted it.

Id recommend trying out MartenDb. It's not really a PostgreSQL ORM, it actually uses Postgres more as a document database via jsonb. But it's excruciatingly easy to use and schema updates are a breeze (and largely automatic)

Check out Marten for a fully fleshed out implementation https://github.com/JasperFx/marten

We are using ExtCore here to make our app modular: https://extcore.net/, and MartenDB for event store (which is surprisingly VERY simple) : https://martendb.io/

I always loved Marten, it is so simple to use and yet powerful. If you are unfamiliar with it, it is a data access library (like an ORM) that is using JSON serialization and LINQ to store and query data from/to Postgres. It basically turns Postgres into document DB. Comparing it to EF, Marten doesn't require migrations since it stores documents.

You're better off using Postgres (has JSON columns.) If you want a more "document" oriented experience, use Marten: https://martendb.io/

For that part, the samples use EventStoreDB (https://www.eventstore.com/), which is the only mature event store I know in Node.js land. Event Sourcing allows using any database as backing storage. I'm co-maintainer of the Marten (https://martendb.io/), which is a .NET library that allows using Postgres as event store and document db.

Then you should check out Marten (https://martendb.io/). Our intention is to remove the boilerplate, we're using Postgres e having the built-in projections.

Not to be confused with the C# document database built on Postgres.
