APSW stands for A\ nother P\ ython S\ QLite W\ rapper. APSW supports CPython 3.9 onwards.
APSW lets you get the most out of the SQLite <https://sqlite.org/>__
embedded relational database engine from Python, and the most out of
Python from SQLite. APSW glues together the complete SQLite C API <https://sqlite.org/c3ref/intro.html>__ and Python's C API <https://docs.python.org/3/c-api/index.html>, staying up to date
with both SQLite and Python. This includes full text search <https://rogerbinns.github.io/apsw/textsearch.html>.
It is recommended to use the builtin sqlite3 module <https://docs.python.org/3/library/sqlite3.html>__ if you want SQLite
to appear interchangeable with the other database drivers.
Use APSW when you want to use SQLite fully, and have an improved
developer experience. The documentation <https://rogerbinns.github.io/apsw/pysqlite.html>__ has a section on
the differences between APSW and sqlite3.
There is a tour and example code using APSW at https://rogerbinns.github.io/apsw/example.html
