Backend
ElectricSQL is designed to work with any Postgres-backed system. You don't need a specific (or, in fact, any) backend framework to use Electric.
However, it's common to manage the Postgres data model using a migrations system. These are often provided by your web framework. Because ElectricSQL's DDLX Rules are applied using DDL migrations, this section shows you how to do this using some popular frameworks.
Note that migrations should be applied via the migrations proxy as detailed in the migrations guide.
This often means using a different DATABASE_URL for your migrations scripts vs your main application.
Some frameworks also provide or work with Postgres change data capture tooling, such as logical replication consumers. This can be useful for Event sourcing.
