Algorand Python is a partial Python implementation that runs on the Algorand Virtual Machine (AVM), enabling developers to write smart contracts and logic signatures using Python syntax. It includes a statically typed framework with Pythonic interfaces to AVM functionality, designed to work with standard Python tooling for a familiar development experience. ## Key Features - **Pythonic Smart Contracts** — Write Algorand smart contracts and logic signatures using Python syntax and static typing. - **Optimizing Compiler (PuyaPy)** — Compiles Python code to AVM bytecode with matching execution semantics and optimizations. - **ARC-4 & ARC-56 Support** — Provides interfaces for ARC-4 contracts and generates ARC-56-compatible app spec files for typed clients. - **Tooling Integration** — Works with AlgoKit CLI for project templating, compilation, client generation, and deployment. - **Standard Python Ecosystem** — Leverages existing Python tooling for linting, formatting, debugging, and development workflows. ## Philosophy Algorand Python aims to make Algorand smart contract development more accessible and productive by leveraging the familiarity and ecosystem of Python, reducing the learning curve and tooling friction associated with lower-level languages.

algokit-utils-ts

A set of core Algorand utilities written in TypeScript and released via npm that make it easier to build solutions on Algorand.
