  • Cython

    The most widely used Python to C compiler

  • Node.js/javascript was not made for something like this even though it works doesn't mean it is recommended. On the other hand, python is really good with CLI, tooling, and utilities. Also, if you know c/c++ you would enjoy https://cython.org/ more it is a combination of c and python and you can do all of the things you can do in Python and easily communicate with c. At the end of the day it is really just what you perfer.

  • PyO3

    Rust bindings for the Python interpreter

  • Like here is PyO3 which is Rust bindings for Python. Lots of Python people I know are learning Rust as their first compiled language.

  • InfluxDB
