## Project history and usage

mysql-to-sqlite3 is a small Python command-line migration utility from the techouse GitHub organization. The project positions `mysql2sqlite` as a transfer tool for MySQL or MariaDB schemas and data into a SQLite 3 database file, creating SQLite tables, indexes, views, and foreign keys where possible before copying rows.

### How it is used

Its practical role is narrower than a general ETL system: it is for developers who need a local SQLite copy, a one-off database downgrade, a schema-only export, selected-table transfer, Docker-based execution, or careful handling of MySQL/MariaDB differences such as JSON, generated defaults, collations, and information_schema metadata. Distribution through PyPI, Docker, and Homebrew gives the package a lightweight cross-platform niche around the `mysql2sqlite` executable rather than a server-side migration service.
