Well, anything that you need to do where the libraries are there and waiting for you.
If you get into the territory of missing libraries it can be a bit of a pain. Otherwise, it's a breath of fresh air as it's almost a drop in replacement.
- hangonhn 6y agoJust to clarify, does it matter if these libraries are pure Python? What I have a hard time understanding is how PyPy is almost a drop-in replacement but then have issues with missing libraries. Couldn't you just pip install the libraries or just literally get the source and run them if they're pure python?
- 6c696e7578 6y ago> does it matter if these libraries are pure Python Yes, from what I remember, the issue is where the libraries have compiled C which doesn't work in pypy's JIT compiler. So long as what you're doing is python code then your code will be ok.
