Mongoose is an elegant MongoDB object modeling tool designed for Node.js. It provides a straightforward schema-based solution for modeling application data and interacting with MongoDB databases. With Mongoose, developers can define schemas, perform CRUD operations, define relationships between data, and leverage built-in validation features.

Compared to using the native MongoDB driver directly, Mongoose simplifies the data modeling process and offers additional features like middleware, schema casting, and query building. It is actively maintained and widely used in the Node.js ecosystem for its ease of use and robust functionality.
