Choose carla if…
- carla is primarily C++; weaviate-examples is HTML.
- Tags unique to carla: ai, artificial-intelligence, autonomous-driving, autonomous-vehicles.
- Also covers AI Agents, Model Training.
When NOT to use carla
- AI Agents: Don't use an agent loop when a deterministic workflow would do; agents add latency, cost, and non-determinism.
- Model Training: Try prompting and RAG first; fine-tuning is the answer to style/format, not missing knowledge.
- Vector Databases: Don't reach for a dedicated vector DB under ~100k vectors; pgvector on your existing Postgres is simpler to operate.
Choose weaviate-examples if…
- weaviate-examples is primarily HTML; carla is C++.
- Tags unique to weaviate-examples: deep-learning, examples, html, vector-database.
- Leaner open-issue backlog (12).
When NOT to use weaviate-examples
- Last GitHub push was 338 days ago (slowing maintenance, Aug 7, 2025). Validate activity before betting a new project on weaviate-examples.
- Vector Databases: Don't reach for a dedicated vector DB under ~100k vectors; pgvector on your existing Postgres is simpler to operate.
