# DynamORM Documentation

This documentation is based on:
- XML comments in the library source (`DynamORM/*.cs`, `DynamORM/*/*.cs`).
- Executable usage patterns from the test suite (`DynamORM.Tests`).

## Contents

- [Quick Start](quick-start.md)
- [Dynamic Table API](dynamic-table-api.md)
- [Fluent Builder API](fluent-builder-api.md)
- [Typed Fluent Syntax](typed-fluent-syntax.md)
- [Mapping and Entities](mapping-and-entities.md)
- [Transactions and Disposal](transactions-and-disposal.md)
- [Stored Procedures](stored-procedures.md)

- [.NET 4.0 Amalgamation](net40-amalgamation.md)
- [Test-Driven Examples](test-driven-examples.md)

## Supported Targets

Main library targets are defined in `DynamORM/DynamORM.csproj`.

For legacy .NET 4.0 consumers, use the amalgamated source workflow documented in [.NET 4.0 Amalgamation](net40-amalgamation.md).

## Design Overview

DynamORM provides two major usage styles:

- Dynamic table access:
  - `db.Table("users").Count(...)`
  - `db.Table("users").Insert(...)`
  - `db.Table("users").Query(...)`
- Fluent SQL builder access:
  - `db.From<T>()`
  - `db.Select<T>()`
  - `db.Insert<T>() / db.Update<T>() / db.Delete<T>()`

The dynamic API is concise and fast to use. The fluent builder API gives stronger composition and explicit SQL control.

For the newer property-mapped typed fluent syntax, see [Typed Fluent Syntax](typed-fluent-syntax.md).
