Description

Read DBF database files from Python applications. It helps data import tools work with older dBase, shapefile attribute, and legacy business data formats without requiring the original application.

This is a data-reading library, not a full database editor. Legacy DBF files may have encoding, date, and field-size quirks, so imports should preview records and preserve originals before conversion.
