WP_Model, synthetic ORM for WordPress (Part 1)
Talk by Anthony Budd (35 minutes)

I have made an ORM for WordPress. Before you roll your eyes at that statement I have built it specifically for WP-based MVPs. Having built lots of MVPs on WordPress for cash-strapped startups this simple class has made WordPress it easier than ever to make complex apps in days using WP. https://github.com/anthonybudd/WP_Model. Anthony will be doing Part 2, taking a deeper dive into the technical aspects, at wp_hooked.
