The Python programming language is actively used by many people, both in industry and academia, for a wide variety of purposes.
Python package managers and Python distributions
edit
- Celery – an asynchronous task queue/job queue based on distributed message passing.
- Conch – implementation of the Secure Shell (SSH) protocol with Twisted.
- Shinken – a computer system and network monitoring software application compatible with Nagios.
- Wicd – a network manager for Linux.
- Xpra – a tool which runs X clients, usually on a remote host, and directs their display to the local machine without losing any state.
Implementations of Python include:
Historic Python implementations include:
- Parrot – Virtual machine being developed mainly as the runtime for Raku, and intended to support dynamic languages like Python, Ruby, Tcl, etc.
- Psyco – specialized JIT compiler project that has mostly been eclipsed by PyPy.
- Pyrex – Python-like Python module development project that has mostly been eclipsed by Cython.
- Python for S60 – CPython port to the S60 platform.
- Stackless Python – CPython with coroutines.
- Unladen Swallow – performance-orientated implementation based on CPython which natively executed its bytecode via an LLVM-based JIT compiler. Funded by Google, stopped circa 2011.
