Talking Points

What is PyPI (Py-P-I)?

Python's packaging system that allows people to distribute their programs and libraries in a standard format that makes it easy to install and use them.

The default repository used with 'pip' is PyPI.

PyPI — the Python Package Index
The Python Package Index is a repository of software for the Python programming language.

Why Does It Matter?

Python is known for its "batteries included."

Classically represented in the xkcd comic:

pip install antigravity
python
>>> import antigravity
>>> quit()

The number of third-party packages is much larger than the number of standard library packages, therefore understanding how packages are used, found, and created are foundational.
