This guide walks you through building a simple application using Zestor.

Create a Store

First, define your data type and create a store. Zestor offers two implementations:

In-Memory Store (gomap)

Best for: caching, testing, ephemeral data.

package main

import (
 "fmt"
 "github.com/zestor-dev/zestor/store"
 "github.com/zestor-dev/zestor/store/gomap"
)

type User struct {
 Name string
 Email string
 Role string
}

func main() {
 // Create a new in-memory store
 s := gomap.NewMemStore[User](store.StoreOptions[User]{})
 defer s.Close()
}

SQLite Store (sqlite)

Best for: persistence, desktop apps, CLI tools.
