+### Database initialization/ migrations
+
+Note that all examples assume that you already have a database.
+
+If that is not the case and you need to create your tables, that's super easy as `ormar` is using sqlalchemy for underlying table construction.
+
+All you have to do is call `create_all()` like in the example below.
+
+```python
+import sqlalchemy
+# get your database url in sqlalchemy format - same as used with databases instance used in Model definition
+engine = sqlalchemy.create_engine("sqlite:///test.db")
+# note that this has to be the same metadata that is used in ormar Models definition
+metadata.create_all(engine)
+```
+
+You can also create single tables, sqlalchemy tables are exposed in `ormar.Meta` class.
+
+```python
+import sqlalchemy
+# get your database url in sqlalchemy format - same as used with databases instance used in Model definition
+engine = sqlalchemy.create_engine("sqlite:///test.db")
+# Artist is an ormar model from previous examples
+Artist.Meta.table.create(engine)
+```
+
+!!!warning
+    You need to create the tables only once, so use a python console for that or remove the script from your production code after first use.
+
+Likewise as with tables, since we base tables on sqlalchemy for migrations please use [alembic][alembic].
+
+Use command line to reproduce this minimalistic example.
+
+```python
+alembic init alembic
+alembic revision --autogenerate -m "made some changes"
+alembic upgrade head
+```
