Is it an ORM?

From the homepage https://acadia.engineering/:

| Not an Object-Relational Mapping (ORM).

  • I dont see how this isn't just an ORM (like Entity Framework in dot net land).

    • it might semantically not be an ORM because of something at an engineering level, but it's 100% ORM like from a user point of view, so it's an ORM.

    • Yeah, from the post it might even be more limited than Django (python) ever was. For example it allows the user to define its own fields, which was used over a decade ago in libraries to extend Django and provide json support long before it was officially supported.
