## What it is
Massive is a small, dynamic MicroORM for .NET built on the Expando/dynamic type, distributed as source files you compile into your project. It supports SQL Server, Oracle, PostgreSQL, and SQLite via ADO.NET providers with minimal setup and no external dependencies.

## Use cases
- query a database with minimal boilerplate in .NET
- lightweight data access without a full ORM
- run simple CRUD operations against SQL Server or SQLite
- use dynamic objects instead of typed models for database rows
- drop-in source files for quick database access in a C# project

## When to choose
- you want a tiny, hackable data-access layer with no dependencies
- your project prefers dynamic typing over generated entity classes
- you need quick database access in a small .NET application

## When to avoid
- you need rich ORM features like migrations, change tracking, or lazy loading
- you prefer strongly-typed LINQ-based querying
- you need an actively developed library with a large community

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: maintenance
- function: orm, database, database-driver
- domain: databases, backend, developer-tools
- platform: dotnet, cross-platform
- tags: microorm, dynamic, csharp, ado-net, sql-server, oracle, postgresql, sqlite
