Hi, thank you for the very nice library.
Sorry, this might be stupid question.
What does the "classic" mean?
Is it not modern? Is there "new" that should be used?
I am confused because my English is poor.

It has no real meaning 😃 A more correct name would have been leveldb-level but I didn't like that. The word "classic" is a joking reference to the fact that classic-level is conceptually close to the original levelup module of 10 years ago.

Hi @vweevers, thank you for the answer.
I see, I understand that.
I think, for example node-level is simple name, like a browser-level. (However, the node-level exists in NPM.)
Anyway, this great library is helping us!
Thank you for your time! 😄
