# Modeling with DynamoDB made easy in Typescript

**[Software Mansion](https://daily.dev/sources/swmansion)** · 7 min read · 0 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

Dynamode is a TypeScript ORM for DynamoDB that addresses the pain points of using the raw AWS SDK — verbose expression strings, lack of type safety, and no autocomplete. The tutorial walks through installing Dynamode, setting up a local DynamoDB instance, defining a table with TypeScript decorators, modeling entities via class inheritance, and performing CRUD operations (put, get, update, query) and transactions with a clean, type-safe API.
