The CPython Developer's Guide (devguide), a comprehensive documentation resource maintained by the Python core team explaining how to contribute to CPython. It covers building, testing, triaging, documentation, security, and the overall development workflow, published at devguide.python.org.

Use cases

  • learn how to contribute to CPython
  • set up a CPython build environment
  • understand the CPython pull request lifecycle
  • find how to triage Python issues
  • learn how to write and run CPython tests
  • understand Python version release status
  • learn how to join the Python core team
  • get started contributing to Python documentation

When to choose

  • you want to contribute code, docs, or triage work to CPython
  • you need authoritative guidance on CPython's development workflow and internals
  • you are onboarding as a new Python contributor or core developer

When to avoid

  • you need general Python language tutorials rather than contribution guidance
  • you are contributing to a third-party Python library, not CPython itself
  • you need a runnable tool rather than documentation
