The goal was to introduce popular, available libraries for major real-world tasks. The number of libraries available for Python 3 is steadily growing as more and more developers choose to support the cleaner syntax used in this version of the Python language. We have seen an overview of:

  • SQLAlchemy for databases

  • TkInter for graphical interfaces

  • PyQt for different graphical interfaces

  • ElementTree for XML parsing

  • lxml for better XML parsing

  • CherryPy for web applications

  • Jinja for string templating in web applications
