mysql-core

library0.1.16jsnpmunverified

MySQL client library for Node.js and TypeScript (v0.1.16). Lightweight, type-safe wrapper around mysql2 with minimal overhead. Releases are infrequent and pre-1.0. Differentiates from mysql2 by providing first-class TypeScript types and a cleaner API, but is immature and may have breaking changes.
