chroma VS golang-ical

Package installer for Python (pip), we use this for installing the Python-based packages, such as Jupyter Lab, and we're going to use this for installing other Python-based tools like the Chroma DB vector database

The above lets me chat, at least superficially, with my friend. It's nice for simple interactions and banter; I've found it to be a positive and reflective experience.

Chroma DB is a newer entrant in the vector database arena, designed specifically for handling high-dimensional color vectors. It's particularly useful for applications in digital media, e-commerce, and content discovery, where color similarity plays a crucial role in search and recommendation algorithms.

For Python I believe Chroma [1] can be used embedded.

For Go I recently started building chromem-go, inspired by the Chroma interface: https://github.com/philippgille/chromem-go

It's neither advanced nor for scale yet, but the RAG demo works.

Whether you’re navigating through well-known options like SQLite, enriched with the sqlite-vss extension, or exploring other avenues like Chroma, an open-source vector database, selecting the right tool is paramount. This article compares these two choices, guiding you through the pros and cons of each, helping you choose the right tool for storing and querying vector embeddings for your project.

Create a new project directory for our example project. Next, we need to clone the Chroma repository to get started. At the root of your project directory let's clone Chroma into it:

I went ahead with https://github.com/arran4/golang-ical after a lot of googling, but I had to hand-roll alerts VALARM with no help of static types.
