RustPython
A Python 3 interpreter written in Rust, enabling Python execution in WebAssembly, embedding, and more.
What is RustPython?
RustPython is a Python 3 interpreter written entirely in Rust that aims for full compatibility with CPython 3.14.0 and above. It provides a clean, embeddable Python environment that can run in diverse contexts like WebAssembly, Rust applications, and standalone systems without relying on CPython bindings.
Rust developers seeking to embed Python scripting into their applications for extensibility, and developers needing a Python interpreter that runs in WebAssembly environments or as a standalone, cross-platform tool.
Developers choose RustPython for its implementation in safe, performant Rust, offering embeddability into Rust projects and WebAssembly support without CPython dependencies, alongside experimental JIT compilation for accelerated Python execution.
