## What it is
CoreStore is a Swift library that wraps Apple's Core Data framework with a type-safe, elegant API. It provides safe transactions, migrations, observation, and a modern data stack for Apple-platform apps.

## Use cases
- manage Core Data persistence in Swift apps
- perform safe Core Data migrations
- observe and react to Core Data changes
- set up an in-memory or local data store
- run type-safe Core Data transactions
- query and fetch entities with a clean Swift API

## When to choose
- you use Core Data on iOS/macOS and want a safer, more expressive Swift API
- you need robust migration and transaction handling
- you want reactive observation of data changes in Apple apps

## When to avoid
- you are not on Apple platforms or not using Swift
- you prefer SQLite directly or a cross-platform ORM
- your project uses an older Swift or OS version than supported
