Python.NET (pythonnet) is a package that gives Python programmers nearly
seamless integration with the .NET 4.0+ Common Language Runtime (CLR) on Windows
and Mono runtime on Linux and OSX. Python.NET provides a powerful application
scripting tool for .NET developers. Using this package you can script .NET
applications or build entire applications in Python, using .NET services and
components written in any language that targets the CLR (C#, VB.NET, F#,
C++/CLI).
Note that this package does not implement Python as a first-class CLR
language - it does not produce managed code (IL) from Python code. Rather,
it is an integration of the CPython engine with the .NET or Mono runtime.
This approach allows you to use CLR services and continue to use existing
Python code and C-API extensions while maintaining native execution
speeds for Python code. If you are interested in a pure managed-code
implementation of the Python language, you should check out the
IronPython_ project.
Python.NET is currently compatible and tested with Python releases from 3.7 onwards.
Current releases are available on PyPi <https://pypi.org/project/pythonnet/>_
and Nuget.org <https://nuget.org/packages/pythonnet>_.
