Can this be used as a "drop-in" replacement for sqlite or do I have to modify my application for it?

For Python at least, there's a "normal" driver that is pretty much a drop-in. Am curious as to how it will work in practice myself, since I usually rely on an ORM these days.

Congrats on the release! A bit unrelated, but the README says Windows is an officially supported platform, and I've seen this be the case on many Go projects. I know very little about the Windows platform, can you comment on how painless supporting Windows is really with Go? Do you have e.g. CI runs on Windows? With most of the compiled stuff I worked on Windows was mostly an afterthought and always yes-it-should-run-but. Can I trust Go to spit out binaries that work, or do I have to avoid certain stdlib features? What about e.g. fork?

Not related to this project, but have done projects in Go. In terms of CI runs, AppVeyor[0] is the most popular one, it allows a similar setup to Travis and has most of the functionality too.

Build compatability is also great with Go. The only issues I've run into so far are graphical applications which often require different libraries for different platforms. Nothing I've done that's not graphical has ever had compatability issues (except file stat).

As someone who started in the 90ies this makes me smile.

Year of the linux desktop or not: something has changed. (Quite aware that the bauerd might be using something else.)
