# 🛢️ Forget the ORMs, Let's Talk About SQL
🧩 This project was developed as part of the **Forget the ORMs, Let's Talk About SQL** live from the [JStack](https://jstack.com.br/) course. The goal is to learn **SQL in practice, without relying on *ORMs* or *query builders***, by exploring the *SQL language* directly and running **PostgreSQL inside a Docker container using Docker Compose**.
Throughout this project, we cover the fundamentals of databases, *SQL* commands, and containerization with Docker to set up an isolated environment for experimentation.
## 🎯 Objectives
- Learn and practice the core **concepts of databases**
- Understand and use **SQL commands** for creating and manipulating data
- Set up **PostgreSQL in a Docker Compose container**
- Sync local directories with containers for easier development
- Perform CRUD operations *(Create, Read, Update, Delete)* directly in SQL
- Explore filtering, ordering, and pagination with `WHERE`, `ORDER BY`, `LIMIT`, and `OFFSET`
## 📘 Explanation in Brazilian Portuguese (pt-BR)
The image below summarizes the keys concepts covered in the lesson about databases. All the content is explained in Brazilian Portuguese (pt-BR), making it easier to understand for native speakers.
## 📄 Technologies Used
- **PostgreSQL**
- **SQL**
- **Docker**
- **Docker Compose**
## ⚙️ Getting Started
### Prerequisites
Make sure you have the following installed:
- **Node.js** (v18 or above)
- **npm**, **Yarn** or **pnpm**
- **Docker**
### Installation
Clone the repository:
```
git clone https://github.com/labs-jstack/023-forget-orm-lets-talk-about-sql.git
cd 023-forget-orm-lets-talk-about-sql
```
Start the containers (e.g., PostgreSQL) with Docker:
```
docker-compose up -d
```
Access the PostgreSQL container:
```
docker exec -it jstack-lives-sql bash
psql -U root
```
Now you can execute SQL commands directly in your PostgreSQL instance!
```
cd scripts
psql -f
```
