## What it is
A Go implementation of the LevelDB key-value database. It is an incomplete work-in-progress that is explicitly not ready for production use.

## Use cases
- embed a leveldb key-value store in a Go application
- read and write sorted key-value data from Go
- use a log-structured storage engine in Go
- experiment with LevelDB internals in Go

## When to choose
- you want to study or contribute to a Go port of LevelDB
- you need a pure-Go embedded key-value store for experimentation

## When to avoid
- you need a production-ready database
- you need complete documentation or full LevelDB feature coverage
- you need an actively maintained project

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: abandoned
- function: database, database-driver
- domain: databases, developer-tools
- platform: go, cross-platform
- tags: key-value-store, leveldb, embedded-database, wip
