About chromem-go

Embeddable vector database for Go with Chroma-like interface and zero third-party dependencies. In-memory with optional persistence. Because `chromem-go` is embeddable it enables you to add retrieval augmented generation (RAG) and similar embeddings-based features into your Go app *without having to run a separate database*. Like when using SQLite instead of PostgreSQL/MySQL/etc. It's *not* a library to connect to Chroma and also not a reimplementation of it in Go. It's a database on its own.
