    instance of a ``zope.interface`` Interface class.

    `Sphinx <https://www.sphinx-doc.org/>`_, a tool to create documentation

  virtual environment
    The `Python venv module <https://docs.python.org/3/library/venv.html>`_
    is used to create lightweight “virtual environments”, each with their
    own independent set of Python packages installed in their site
    directories. A virtual environment is created on top of an existing
    Python installation, known as the virtual environment’s “base” Python,
    and may optionally be isolated from the packages in the base environment,
    so only those explicitly installed in the virtual environment are
    available.

    `zc.buildout <http://buildout.org>`_ is a Python-based build system
    for creating, assembling and deploying applications.

  ZCML

  ZMI
    Zope offers the ZMI (Zope Managment Interface) for managing your
    Zope site through a browser. You can get to it by going to the
    path ``/manage`` in your Zope site and logging in with credentials
    for a user with role ``Manager``.

  Zope
    `The Z Object Publishing Framework <https://www.zope.dev>`_.
    The granddaddy of Python web frameworks.

  ZODB
    The `ZODB <http://www.zodb.org>`_ is the object database included in
    Zope.
