Probably never. This is a subset of Python that would break most libraries.
The author says that this is a research project, and adding the standard library (if possible at all) would be a humongus task by itself.
- yorwba 8y agoA large part of the Python standard library is actually written in Python itself. You can even use inspect.getsource to look at the source of inspect.getsource itself. So if you can already compile arbitrary Python, you only need to reimplement the parts that are written in C, or maybe just rewrite them to use a different FFI API.
- halflings 8y agoIt can't compile arbitrary Python, it's only a subset of Python (removing some of the dynamic features that might be used in the standard library).
