Gel Node.js Client

The `gel` package is the official Node.js client library for interacting with Gel databases. It provides a robust, type-safe API for executing queries, managing transactions, and interacting with Gel's data model. The current stable version, as per the prompt, is 2.2.0, with frequent minor and patch releases, often in conjunction with `@gel/generate` and `@gel/ai` packages, indicating active development and rapid iteration. Key differentiators include strong TypeScript support, an ORM-less approach focusing on direct query execution, automatic connection discovery for local development, and extensive query generation capabilities through its companion tools. It's designed for Node.js environments (v18.0.0+) and also supports TypeScript projects (v4.4.0+).
