What is an example of a fully finished python software product on github?
Judging by your previous comments, you might get what you're looking for from xhtml2pdf. (Don't be put off by the 0.2.7 version number; xhtml2pdf has been in active development for over a decade and is a stable library.) It's generally used as a library in Python projects, but it does have a stand-alone command-line interface, and the library in general is thoroughly documented so you don't need to rely just on reading the code to figure out what's going on.

Create PDFs using Python and xhtml2pdf
