## Using Prometheus as a Go Library
Within the Prometheus project, repositories such as [prometheus/common](https://github.com/prometheus/common) and
[prometheus/client-golang](https://github.com/prometheus/client-golang) are designed as re-usable libraries.

designed for use as a library. We are aware that people do use parts as such,
and we do not put any deliberate inconvenience in the way, but we want you to be
aware that no care has been taken to make it work well as a library. For instance,
