Request RustPython support from PyO3 (the creators of Maturin).\n2. Create a fork of Maturin specifically for RustPython.\n\nPros and cons of each:\n### First method\nPros:\n- Better integration with the Maturin environment and the PyO3 ecosystem.\n- No need to patch Maturin to work with RustPython.\n\nCons:\n- This would be unlikely to be approved due to the complexity of maintenance.\n\n### Second method\nPros:\n- Integration without relying on the PyO3 committee.\n- Exclusive improvements for better performance in RustPython.\n\nCons:\n- Makes the project harder to maintain.\n- Implementation may be difficult, especially for a small team.","author":{"url":"https://github.com/CVFA1","@type":"Person","name":"CVFA1"},"datePublished":"2026-07-21T01:26:19.000Z","interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":"https://schema.org/CommentAction","userInteractionCount":1},"url":"https://github.com/8342/RustPython/issues/8342"}
