Sequelize	ORM	Full	Hello World CRUD

Learn how to establish a connection to a YugabyteDB database and begin basic CRUD operations using the Hello World examples.

For fully-runnable code snippets and explanations of common operations, see the project page CRUD example. Before running CRUD examples, make sure you have installed the prerequisites.

Prerequisites

To develop Node.js applications for YugabyteDB, you need the following:

• Node.JS
  To download and install Node.js, refer to the Node.js documentation.
  To check the version of node, use the following command:

  node -v
  

• Create a Node.JS project
  Create a file with the .js extension (for example app.js), which can be run using the following command:

  node app.js
  

• YugabyteDB cluster

  • Create a free cluster on YugabyteDB Managed. Refer to Create a free cluster. Note that YugabyteDB Managed requires SSL.
  • Alternatively, set up a standalone YugabyteDB cluster by following the steps in Install YugabyteDB.
