A fluent, intuitive ORM for any relational database engine.

- Near-zero configuration.
- Fluent interfaces like `$mapper->author[7]->fetch();` (and [concrete ones if you want](https://gist.github.com/alganet/4957800)).
- Adapts itself to different database styles.
- Records are handled as Plain Data Object.
- No need to generate a thing, nada, nothing, zilch, bugger all!

This documentation is a work in progress! Kindly forward any issues you may find back to us =)
