    lxml

    lxml

    The lxml XML toolkit for Python

    A Python library for efficient XML and HTML processing, known for speed and compatibility. The lxml XML toolkit is a Pythonic binding for the C libraries libxml2 and libxslt. It is unique in that it combines the speed and XML feature completeness of these libraries with the simplicity of a native Python API, mostly compatible but superior to the well-known ElementTree API. The latest release works with all CPython versions from 3.6 to 3.12. See the introduction for more information about the background and goals of the lxml project.

    isort

    isort

    A Python utility / library to sort imports

    isort is a Python utility/library to sort imports alphabetically, and automatically separated into sections and by type. It provides a command-line utility, Python library and plugins for various editors to quickly sort all your imports. It requires Python 3.6+ to run but supports formatting Python 2 code too. Several plugins have been written that enable to use isort from within a variety of text-editors. You can find a full list of them on the isort wiki. Additionally, I will enthusiastically accept pull requests that include plugins for other text editors and add documentation for them as I am notified. As of isort 3.1.0 support for balanced multi-line imports has been added. With this enabled isort will dynamically change the import length to the one that produces the most balanced grid, while staying below the maximum import length defined.

    Python ADB

    Python ADB

    Python ADB + Fastboot implementation

    python-adb provides a pure-Python implementation of the Android Debug Bridge protocol so you can script Android devices without depending on the platform adb binary. It exposes high-level helpers for device discovery, shell commands, file push/pull, port forwarding, and log collection, making it easy to build automation around phones and emulators. Under the hood it speaks the ADB protocol directly and can connect via USB or over TCP, which is useful for lab setups and headless servers. Because it’s Python, you can compose device actions with your favorite testing, scraping, or data-collection libraries in one process. The project also includes utilities for robust connection handling and timeouts so flaky USB links don’t derail long runs. It’s well-suited to CI test farms, large-scale telemetry, and custom device control workflows.

    Great Expectations

    Great Expectations

    Always know what to expect from your data

    Great Expectations helps data teams eliminate pipeline debt, through data testing, documentation, and profiling. Software developers have long known that testing and documentation are essential for managing complex codebases. Great Expectations brings the same confidence, integrity, and acceleration to data science and data engineering teams. Expectations are assertions for data. They are the workhorse abstraction in Great Expectations, covering all kinds of common data issues. Expectations are a great start, but it takes more to get to production-ready data validation. Where are Expectations stored? How do they get updated? How do you securely connect to production data systems? How do you notify team members and triage when data validation fails? Great Expectations supports all of these use cases out of the box. Instead of building these components for yourself over weeks or months, you will be able to add production-ready validation to your pipeline in a day.

    Automated Integration Testing and Live Documentation for your API

    Given an API specification, written in YAML/JSON format, ScanAPI hits the specified endpoints, runs the test cases, and generates a detailed report of this execution - which can also be used as the API documentation itself. With almost no Python knowledge, the user can define endpoints to be hit, the expected behavior for each response and will receive a full real-time diagnostic report of the API.

    TOML

    TOML

    Tom Preston-Werner's obvious, minimal language

    Tom's Obvious, Minimal Language. By Tom Preston-Werner, Pradyun Gedam, et al. TOML aims to be a minimal configuration file format that's easy to read due to obvious semantics. TOML is designed to map unambiguously to a hash table. TOML should be easy to parse into data structures in a wide variety of languages. TOML shares traits with other file formats used for application configuration and data serialization, such as YAML and JSON. TOML and JSON both are simple and use ubiquitous data types, making them easy to code for or parse with machines. TOML and YAML both emphasize human readability features, like comments that make it easier to understand the purpose of a given line. TOML differs in combining these, allowing comments (unlike JSON) but preserving simplicity (unlike YAML). Because TOML is explicitly intended as a configuration file format, parsing it is easy, but it is not intended for serializing arbitrary data structures.

    book-to-skill

    book-to-skill

    Turn any technical book PDF into a Claude Code skill

    book-to-skill is a Claude Code skill that turns technical books and documents into reusable AI reference skills. It extracts content from PDFs and EPUBs, then organizes the material so an assistant can study, reference, and apply it while working. The project is useful for transforming dense manuals, textbooks, internal documentation, or technical guides into practical agent-accessible knowledge. It includes an extraction script and a SKILL.md workflow that guides how the resulting content should be used. The goal is not simply to summarize a book, but to make its knowledge available during problem solving and implementation. book-to-skill is best suited for developers and researchers who want AI assistants to work from specific long-form source material.
