## What it is
gocraft/dbr is a Go library that extends database/sql with a fast query builder and convenience features like struct loading, IN-clause interpolation, and transaction helpers. It supports MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQLite3, and MsSQL.

## Use cases
- build sql queries in go without a full orm
- load query results into go structs
- interpolate in clause values in go sql queries
- manage transactions in go database code
- migrate legacy snake_case columns to camelcase go structs

## When to choose
- you want a lightweight query builder over database/sql rather than a full orm
- you need fast performance with manual control over sql
- you use mysql, postgres, sqlite, or mssql in go

## When to avoid
- you want a full orm with migrations and associations
- you need database support beyond mysql, postgres, sqlite, or mssql
- you prefer writing raw sql directly

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: maintenance
- function: database-driver, orm, database
- domain: databases, backend, developer-tools
- platform: go, windows
- tags: query-builder, database-sql, sql, struct-mapping, mysql, postgresql, sqlite, linux, macos
