Afero is a Go library that provides a unified filesystem abstraction, allowing applications to interact with local disk, in-memory storage, cloud services, archives, and remote systems through a single, consistent interface. At its core, it defines a standard interface that all filesystem backends implement, enabling developers to swap storage implementations without changing application code. The library distinguishes itself through its composable architecture, which includes layered filesystem composition for creating cached, sandboxed, or restricted storage views. It offers a copy-on-write

libfuse is a library and kernel module combination that enables the development of custom Linux filesystems that run in userspace rather than in kernel space. It provides a bridge between the kernel's virtual filesystem layer and a userspace daemon, allowing filesystem operations to be forwarded and handled by a regular user process. The project offers two distinct APIs: a high-level callback-driven API where filesystem operations are implemented as simple functions that return results synchronously, and a low-level API that exposes raw kernel request structures directly for fine-grained contr
