## What it is
tqdm is a Python library that adds a progress meter to any loop by simply wrapping an iterable with tqdm(iterator). This is the original repository, now superseded by the actively maintained tqdm/tqdm fork.

## Use cases
- show a progress bar for long-running python loops
- wrap an iterator to display iteration progress in the terminal
- track progress of file downloads or batch processing in scripts
- add a progress meter to data processing pipelines with one line of code

## When to choose
- you need a dead-simple, zero-dependency progress meter for Python loops
- you are maintaining legacy code that already imports this package

## When to avoid
- you are starting a new project - use the actively maintained tqdm/tqdm instead
- you need modern features like nested bars, GUI notebooks support, or async support

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: maintenance
- function: developer-tools, cli
- domain: developer-tools
- platform: python, cross-platform, cli
- tags: progress-bar, iterator-wrapper, deprecated, terminal, command-line
