Tasteful Libraries (github)

2025-02-26   programming sketch tasteful

What does 'tasteful' mean for me? It means elegant. A library who cares about their users. A library who strived to find the most simple and elegant approach in every decision.

Tier 1

• google/python-fire
  

  • google/python-fire/blob/master/docs/guide.md#calling-functions
    

    • its guide is very good
      

• pydantic/logfire
  

• Delgan/loguru
  

• pytoolz/toolz
  

  • favorite functions: pipe, partial, curry
    

• karpathy/micrograd
  

• mrocklin/multipledispatch
  

• tqdm/tqdm
  

• background
  

  • explanation by its creator kennethreirz.org/software/background
    

• delegator
  

  • explanation by its creator https://kennethreitz.org/software/delegator
    

Tier 2

• apprise
  

  • saw first in loguru readme
    

• Textualize/rich
  

  • Not sure if they took their name from this Unix principle, but it reminds me that Textuality—Text is the universal interface
    

  • Textualize/textual
    

    • Textualize/textual-web
      

    • textual.textualize.io/blog/2023/09/18/things-i-learned-while-building-textuals-textarea
      

• Knio/dominate
  

  • elegantly designed, but I think what it does can be done in a much simpler way, just in 10-12 lines of code (see barisozmen/python-cookbook/blob/main/web/render_html.p)
