A hands-on walkthrough of ExecDB for people who haven't used it before. Each chapter builds on the previous one and takes a few minutes — read them in order with a terminal open, running the commands as you go.

If you already know what you're looking for, this isn't the place: see docs/usage/ for a plain reference and docs/examples/ for self-contained, task-oriented walkthroughs instead.

  1. First steps: the REPL — start ExecDB, run some SQL, look around a schema.
  2. Snapshots: the binary is the data — the one idea that makes ExecDB different from "just run SQLite": persistence means writing out a new executable.
  3. Getting data in and out — CSV import, dumping to SQL text, pulling another snapshot's data into your current session.
  4. Talking to it from other tools — the PostgreSQL wire protocol, psql/driver access, what it will and won't let external clients do, and optional authentication.

Requires only the execdb binary — see the top-level README for install options if you don't have it yet.
