First part of the README that hasn't changed in 2 months: > Sqinn-Go is a Go (Golang) library for accessing SQLite databases without cgo. It uses Sqinn https://github.com/cvilsmeier/sqinn https://github.com/cvilsmeier/sqinn under the hood. It starts Sqinn as a child process (os/exec) and communicates with Sqinn over stdin/stdout/stderr. The Sqinn child process then does the SQLite work. > If you want SQLite but do not want cgo, Sqinn-Go can be a solution. This seems pretty clear to me about what's happening. It makes an OS call to a third-party executable (sqinn), then pipes the result from stdout back into the Go code. The advantage is you don't have to compile the C code alongside your Go code. Honestly, I don't really know how much more clear the author could be. I guess if you don't know what stdin, stdout, and stderr are it might be confusing? It's hard to imagine a programmer who is interested in this library but isn't immediately familiar with those concepts.
