## What it is
PyiCloud is a Python library that lets developers authenticate with and query iCloud webservices, such as calendar and iPhone (Find My iPhone) data, using an Apple ID. It also ships a small command-line tool for storing credentials in the system keyring.

## Use cases
- access icloud calendar data from python
- query find my iphone device location
- authenticate with apple id in a python script
- store icloud password in system keyring
- automate icloud data retrieval
- connect to icloud webservices from a script

## When to choose
- you need programmatic access to iCloud calendar or iPhone data from Python
- you want a lightweight requests-based wrapper around iCloud APIs
- you need a CLI to manage iCloud credentials in the keyring

## When to avoid
- you need full access to all iCloud services like photos, drive, or mail
- you are not working in Python
- you need an officially supported Apple API with guaranteed stability

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: active

- domain: apple-ecosystem, apis, developer-tools
- platform: python, cli, cross-platform
