## 🎯 **What is xwnode?**

**xwnode** is the most comprehensive Python graph-based data processing engine ever built - combining **57 production-ready data structure strategies**, **28 advanced graph representations**, and **35+ query languages** into one unified, blazingly fast library. Whether you're building the next Facebook, training AI models, creating a distributed database, or processing billions of spatial data points, xwnode provides the production-grade infrastructure you need.

### **The Problem We Solve**

Every modern application needs to handle complex data relationships, but traditional solutions force you to choose between:
- ❌ **One-size-fits-all databases** that sacrifice performance
- ❌ **Multiple specialized libraries** creating dependency hell
- ❌ **Custom implementations** that take months to build and maintain
- ❌ **Experimental code** that breaks in production

### **The xwnode Solution**

✅ **57 battle-tested data structures** from basic HashMap to cutting-edge Learned Index (ML-based)  
✅ **28 graph representations** from simple adjacency lists to billion-edge compressed graphs  
✅ **35+ query languages** including SQL, GraphQL, Cypher, SPARQL, XPath, and more  
✅ **Production-ready features** with WAL, Bloom filters, lock-free operations, and atomic CAS  
✅ **Zero configuration** - intelligent AUTO mode selects optimal strategies automatically  
✅ **Scales from kilobytes to terabytes** with the same API

        {'name': 'Bob', 'age': 25, 'city': 'LA'}
    ],
    'products': {
        'laptop': {'price': 1000, 'stock': 15},
        'phone': {'price': 500, 'stock': 32}
    }
})

# Navigate data
print(node['users'][0]['name'].value)  # Alice
print(node['products']['laptop']['price'].value)  # 1000
