Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Dapper vs. Entity Framework With Postgres
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)

Show HN: Light implementation of Event Sourcing using PostgreSQL as event store
Check out Marten for a fully fleshed out implementation https://github.com/JasperFx/marten

Is anyone using Dapr
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/

Yet another embedded DB (kind of)
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.

This article is covering the potential problems you will face when using MongoDB for typical relational tasks.
You're better off using Postgres (has JSON columns.) If you want a more "document" oriented experience, use Marten: https://martendb.io/

Self-Paced Kit: Introduction to Event Sourcing with Node.js and TypeScript
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.

CQRS is simpler than you think with C#11 and .NET 7!
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.

Marten, a Crystal web framework that makes building web apps productive and fun
Not to be confused with the C# document database built on Postgres.

LiteDB: A .NET embedded NoSQL database
Before checking this out, people might want to take a look through the issues and pull requests of which there are 500+ and 50+ respectively [1]. I was really optimistic about this project and it was headed in a great direction, but it's not in a production ready state, and it seems that the main guy behind it has decided to move onto other things. It's been about a year since there was any significant activity.
I just mention this because a lot of these little issues might only become more apparent after integrating the db into your project and so it can be a bit annoying. I ended up swapping to Linq2DB [1]. It's something, more or less, similar offering an ORM/LINQ type system as well as the ability to also use direct SQL if desired. But the neat thing is that it also uses a standardized API for the LINQ query language, so you can do things like swap from SQLite to PostgreSQL in one* line of code, so long as you're not using any provider specific extensions.

Flyweight: An ORM for SQLite
I had a positive experience with Linq2db? https://github.com/linq2db/linq2db
I mention because I had something of the opposite experience with it. It not only ended up yielding the correct queries, but I saw a significant increase in performance. And the neat thing about it, beyond ORM and linq-to-sql, is a common interface amongst providers - so you can do things like swap from SQLite to Postgres with 1 line* of code, so long as you're not using provider specific extensions.

.NET 6 - ORM vs Stored Procedures - Azure Functions + SQL Databases
Temporary tables are covered by linq2db. But better to show Stored Proc maybe your final query just needs several CTE which also supported by linq2db.

Expression trees for LINQ
My learning path was supporting linq2db, not short way. StackOverflow was original source to find something like, how to do if operator in Expression Tree, how to throw exception in Expression Tree, how to build dynamic filter, ect.

Dapper is it worth using now with the improvements in EF in dotnet 6?
Checkout linq2db No need for Dapper or EF with this library. I wouldn't want to miss it.

Why not linq2db? Faster than Dapper and has LINQ support.

EF Core is good for most things.
Probably you can understand why linq2db was born 15 years ago
