+Package bolt implements a low-level key/value store in pure Go. It supports
+fully serializable transactions, ACID semantics, and lock-free MVCC with
+multiple readers and a single writer. Bolt can be used for projects that
+want a simple data store without the need to add large dependencies such as
+Postgres or MySQL.
+
+Bolt is a single-level, zero-copy, B+tree data store. This means that Bolt is
+optimized for fast read access and does not require recovery in the event of a
+system crash. Transactions which have not finished committing will simply be
+rolled back in the event of a crash.
+
+The design of Bolt is based on Howard Chu's LMDB database project.
+
+Bolt currently works on Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux.
+
+
+Basics
+
+There are only a few types in Bolt: DB, Bucket, Tx, and Cursor. The DB is
+a collection of buckets and is represented by a single file on disk. A bucket is
+a collection of unique keys that are associated with values.
+
+Transactions provide either read-only or read-write access to the database.
+Read-only transactions can retrieve key/value pairs and can use Cursors to
+iterate over the dataset sequentially. Read-write transactions can create and
+delete buckets and can insert and remove keys. Only one read-write transaction
+is allowed at a time.
+
+
+Caveats
+
+The database uses a read-only, memory-mapped data file to ensure that
+applications cannot corrupt the database, however, this means that keys and
+values returned from Bolt cannot be changed. Writing to a read-only byte slice
+will cause Go to panic.
+
+Keys and values retrieved from the database are only valid for the life of
+the transaction. When used outside the transaction, these byte slices can
+point to different data or can point to invalid memory which will cause a panic.
