Jet is a Go library providing a type-safe SQL query builder with code generation from database schemas and automatic mapping of query results into Go structs. It supports PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQLite, CockroachDB, and MariaDB, and is explicitly not an ORM.

Use cases

• write type-safe SQL queries in Go with compile-time checking
• generate Go code from database schema for query building
• map SQL query results into nested Go structs automatically
• build complex SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE queries without raw SQL strings
• get code completion for SQL queries in Go IDEs
• query PostgreSQL, MySQL, or SQLite from a Go application

When to choose

• you want type-safe SQL in Go without ORM magic
• you prefer writing SQL-like queries with IDE completion and compile-time safety
• you need automatic mapping of query results into complex object compositions
• you use PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQLite, CockroachDB, or MariaDB

When to avoid

• you want a full ORM with associations, migrations, and lifecycle hooks
• you need database engines beyond the SQL dialects Jet supports
• you prefer hand-written raw SQL without code generation steps
