CrabDB is a lightweight, portable key-value database designed to provide fast and efficient data storage in a simple, easy-to-use format. Inspired by the metaphor of a book, CrabDB organizes data as pages in a book, where each page represents an entry in the database. This structure makes it intuitive to understand and interact with, while maintaining high performance for both small and large datasets.
