+pgstrap allows you to easily run typescript migrations or generate a directory that represents your database schemas with `table.sql` files. Run `pgstrap generate` to generate a directory with the structure of your database schemas using PGlite by default, without requiring a background Postgres server.

 - `npm run db:migrate` - Run pending migrations
 - `npm run db:reset` - Drop and recreate the database, then run all migrations
-- `npm run db:generate` - Generate types and structure dumps. Use `pgstrap generate --pglite` to run migrations against an in-memory PGlite instance.
+- `npm run db:generate` - Generate types and structure dumps through an in-memory PGlite instance by default. Use `pgstrap generate --no-pglite` to connect to an external Postgres database instead.
