    15  // Package cue is the main API for CUE evaluation.
    16  //
    17  // [Value] is the main type that represents CUE evaluations.
    18  // Values are created with a [cuelang.org/go/cue/cuecontext.Context].
    19  // Only values created from the same Context can be involved in the same operation.
    20  // Values created from the same Context are not safe for concurrent use,
    21  // which we intend to change in the future.
    22  //
    23  // [Context] defines the set of active packages, the translations of field
    24  // names to unique codes, as well as the set of builtins.
    25  // Use [cuelang.org/go/cue/cuecontext.New] to create a new context.
    26  //
    27  // While a context can be used to build values, note that loading a module and its
    28  // dependencies should be done with the [cuelang.org/go/cue/load] package.
    29  //
    30  // Note that the following types are DEPRECATED and their usage should be
    31  // avoided if possible:
    32  //
    33  //   - [FieldInfo]
    34  //   - [Instance]
    35  //   - [Runtime]
    36  //   - [Struct]
    37  //
    38  // Many types also have deprecated methods. Code that already uses deprecated
    39  // methods can keep using them for at least some time. We aim to provide a
    40  // go or cue fix solution to automatically rewrite code using the new API.
