Summary:
This PR merges the complete TypeScript engine refactor into the main branch, transforming SnailDB into a fully production-ready, self-hosted, AI-optimized database. All legacy code and external dependencies have been removed, and the project is now entirely TypeScript-based.

Key Changes:

  • TypeScript-only implementation: Refactored all server and client code to TypeScript; removed Go/Python dependencies.
  • Self-hosted SnailDB server: Introduced custom protocol snaildb://localhost:12222, no external database required.
  • Production-grade architecture: Modular design with robust error handling, logging, vector search (HNSW) for AI/LLM workloads.
  • Comprehensive documentation: All docs organized under docs/ with guides, API reference, architecture, deployment, and examples.
  • Real-world usage examples: TypeScript examples verified and ready in docs/guides/EXAMPLES.md.
  • Jest test suite: 14 integration tests in tests/, all passing; includes server availability checks.
  • CI/CD workflow: GitHub Actions for build, test, and example verification using Node.js.
  • Ecocee branding: Updated metadata, license, and README for Ecocee open-source initiative.

Benefits:

  • Fully TypeScript, maintainable, and developer-friendly.
  • Embedded and lightweight for AI, LLM, and IoT workloads.
  • Ready for production deployment with CI/CD support.
  • Clean folder structure and modular codebase for future extension.

Next Steps:

  • Monitor real-world usage for performance and stability.
  • Consider adding advanced features: ACID compliance, encryption, and query language improvements.
