From the project description: - Bridge between JVM objects and Python objects easily; use Python in your Java and use some Java in your Python. - Python objects are linked to the JVM GC such that when they are no longer reachable from the JVM their references are released. Scope based resource contexts are also available. - Finding the python libraries is done dynamically allowing one system to run on multiple versions of python. - REPL oriented design means fast, smooth, iterative development.
