GINO adds the ingredient of building SQLs
conveniently with SQLAlchemy core.
Async SQLAlchemy

SHOWCASE
I built GINO because I found it difficult to access database in Python with asyncio in 2017, and I wanted all three of explicitness, development performance and runtime performance in a single library.
Following GNU’s naming style, GINO is recursively defined as GINO Is Not ORM, indicating that it’s almost an ORM but refuses to inherit the implicit behaviors found in typical ORMs.
