- I was worried at first because I progressively trust non-TypeScript projects less and less, but the test suite looks fine and they have official typings so there's that mitigation at least.
- I really don't love the use of static properties everywhere in order to define model schema. Which is probably a little hypocritical, because one of my own projects[0] does the same thing, but IMO decorators are a cleaner way to do it that reads better to a human.
- Require loop detection in model relations is cool. I like that.
- In general it's a little too string-y for my tastes. I think `eager()` should take a model class, for example, rather than a string name. Maybe behind the scenes it uses the model class and pulls the string name out of it? But I think using objects-as-objects is a better way to do things than using strings-as-references.
Overall, though, it seems very low-magic and I did understand most of it from a five minute peek, so I kind of like this. I think it's a little too JavaScript-y (rather than TypeScript-y) for my tastes, but maybe that can be addressed by layering on a bit of an adapter...I'll need to look deeper.
