Repository Content

This GitHub repository is used for several things:

Historically, this repository also hosted:

  • The typing_extensions package, which now lives in the typing_extensions repo. It used to be in the typing_extensions directory.

  • A backport of the typing module for older Python versions. It was removed after all Python versions that lack typing in the standard library reached end of life. The last released version, supporting Python 2.7 and 3.4, is available at PyPI.
