  "why_use_this": "UnixODBC provides the standard ODBC interface layer on Unix-like systems, letting applications connect to multiple database backends (MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQLite, etc.) through a uniform API. Most database client libraries and ORMs on Linux depend on it as a build or runtime dependency. Use this if you\u0027re setting up a database connectivity stack or developing against ODBC-compliant drivers."
