Diesel is a safe, extensible ORM and query builder for Rust that provides safe, composable abstractions over database queries and aims to prevent runtime errors by enforcing correctness at compile time. It delivers high performance through zero-cost abstractions, reduces boilerplate with code generation, and lets you map database rows to Rust structs using derives like Queryable and Insertable for simple and complex queries. Diesel supports multiple database backends via a unified API (multidatabase support) and is designed as an extensible alternative to Active Record, focusing on domain-driven design and compile-time guarantees.
