What are some other frameworks that has ORM similar to Laravel ORM?

Planning on trying other frameworks in other languages besides Laravel but find most of them not as easy to use as Eloquent. Is there any framework in other languages in your mind that is as easy and as powerful as Eloquent?

@tykus Forgot to say that no Rail and Laravel. No hate on both of them but just looking for something that's more typed heavy like C#.

as @tykus linked you, the pattern used by Eloquent is called Active Record and is used by other frameworks like Ruby on Rails.

Martin Fowler does a great job explaining it on his book Patterns of Enterprise Application Architecture.

With Express (javascript) you have Typeorm (who can be used following Active Record or Data Mapper) or Sequelize.

@okusax Good to know that. I've tried Sequilize and SQLAlchemey but I don't like them much.

@jlrdw .Net coer sound like a great migration from Laravel. Haven't fully deep dive into it yet but I heard the entity framework is great.
