+### 🔌 Bring Your Own ORM

+PostgreJS is a driver, not a framework, so what you build on top of it stays your choice:
+
+<!-- One cell per adapter, so each renders as its own card: a table because
+     GitHub strips CSS, and this is the one layout that survives everywhere
+     the README is read. The logos come from postgrejs.com rather than being

+Each adapter hands the compiled SQL straight to this client, with no `pg` left anywhere in the chain, and each is
+compared query by query against the driver it replaces - and, where the project ships a suite of its own, run
+against that too. So adopting one is a change to how the connection is created and nothing else.
