## What it is
db-migrate is a database migration framework for Node.js, usable as a CLI tool or local module. It supports MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQLite3, and MongoDB through official driver plugins.

## Use cases
- run database schema migrations in a node.js app
- version control database schema changes
- migrate postgres schema from the command line
- manage mysql migrations in javascript
- roll back database migrations
- set up repeatable database migrations for sqlite

## When to choose
- you need a mature, database-agnostic migration tool for Node.js
- you want migrations runnable from CLI or programmatically
- you use MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQLite, or MongoDB

## When to avoid
- your stack is not Node.js
- you need databases outside the officially supported drivers
- you prefer an ORM's built-in migration system

- maturity: active
- function: database, cli, developer-tools
