Research direction

Start with the linked Sequelize v6 migration page, especially the “Running migrations” section, and identify the beginner gaps described in the issue. Done means improving the migration guidance with links for further learning and documenting migration-file formatting, including foreign keys.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

As I check the documentation seems like its not too good for devs who wanted to use it as a tool in development.

Example on this, the migration:
https://sequelize.org/docs/v6/other-topics/migrations/#running-migrations

There are no links for further learnings. just the command

Or we have to search for the complete documentation on how migration file is being formatted like, how to set its foreign key and so
