Pathlib gives a decent oop interface to most file operations. The pathlib docs has a handy Rosetta Stone table for replacing `os` and `shutil` invocations which is very handy. It could still be better, and sadly being in the stdlib means it probably won't be improved. For example, we still need shutil.rmtree to recursively nuke a directory. The pathlib way of doing it is laborious and error prone: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/13118029/deleting-folders-in-python-recursively/49782093#49782093 https://stackoverflow.com/questions/13118029/deleting-folder...
