## Role

In-process analytical database

## Why it's here

Full SQL analytics on files without a server. Point it at Parquet or CSV and query immediately - the fastest path from raw data to an answer.

## Running it

This is a library, not a service. Install it into your own Python environment or use the official image directly.

```bash
./fetch-sources.sh ./sources
tar xzf ./sources/duckdb.tar.gz -C ./sources
```
