carabao-mongo

Carabao-Mongo is a lightweight, TypeScript-first abstraction over the official MongoDB driver (v1.1.3). It provides strong typing, explicit CRUD operations, aggregation-based queries with joins via $lookup, UUID abstraction, multi-database support, and transaction support. Unlike ORMs, it avoids decorators and schema reflection, staying close to MongoDB concepts while reducing boilerplate. Release cadence is irregular; active development continues. Key differentiator: type-safe, explicit query API without magic, enabling easy fallback to native driver.
