What bugs did you run into with MikroORM? It looks like there are only two open issues that are classified as bugs on their issue tracker (github).

Ha. Well, one of 'em was just fixed. https://github.com/mikro-orm/mikro-orm/issues/725

There's also a known issue where an insert statement with an `undefined` for a field (rather than the lack of a presence) translates to a null (this is actually a `pg` driver situation). https://github.com/mikro-orm/mikro-orm/issues/719

Finally, the docs have entities which use TypeScript's `optional` indicator (e.g. `image?: string`).

Problem is, that reflects the state of an entity pre-creation. After creation it's going to be `null`, which will definitely escape the type system (you've got strict null checks on in TS, right?).

However, typing that same column as `image: string | null` actually produces a `columnType` of JSONB(?) rather than `STRING NULL`.

That's a couple examples, but yeah. I invested some heavy hours into the codebase this weekend.
