Introduction
📄 What is Cycle Active Record?
This library extends Cycle ORM by integrating the Active Record pattern, providing developers with an intuitive, object-centric way to interact with databases.
Unlike Cycle ORM's default Data Mapper pattern, which separates the in-memory object representations from database operations, Active Record combines data access and business logic in a single entity.
This allows for more straightforward and rapid development cycles, particularly for simpler CRUD operations, by enabling direct data manipulation through the object's properties and methods.
