Inserting Records


let user = User(name: "John Doe", age: 25, email: "john.doe@example.com")
try database.insert(user, into: usersTable)

Updating Records


let userToUpdate = try database.get(from: usersTable, where: "name = 'John Doe'")
userToUpdate.age = 26
try database.update(userToUpdate, in: usersTable)

Deleting Records


let criteria = "age > 30" // Define your deletion criteria
try database.delete(from: usersTable, where: criteria)

Step 4: Retrieve Data
