Open-rest

Open-rest v8.0.3 is a standard RESTful API server built on Restify and Sequelize. It provides a structured directory layout for rapid API development with integrated database support, middleware, i18n, and configuration management. Targeted at Node.js >=6, it uses CommonJS and is not ESM-compatible. Compared to alternatives like Express-based REST frameworks, Open-rest enforces a specific app structure and relies on Restify's performance and Sequelize's ORM capabilities, reducing boilerplate for CRUD APIs. Development appears stalled (last release 2017) with no active maintenance.
