[](https://gitter.im/python/typing?utm_source=badge&utm_medium=badge&utm_campaign=pr-badge&utm_content=badge) Static Typing for Python ======================== Documentation and Support ------------------------- The documentation for Python's static typing can be found at [typing.readthedocs.io](https://typing.readthedocs.io/). You can get help either in our [support forum](https://github.com/python/typing/discussions) or chat with us on [Gitter](https://gitter.im/python/typing). Improvements to the type system should be discussed on the [typing-sig](https://mail.python.org/mailman3/lists/typing-sig.python.org/) mailing list, although the [issues](https://github.com/python/typing/issues) in this repository contain some historic discussions. Repository Content ------------------ This GitHub repository is used for several things: - The `typing_extensions` module lives in the [typing\_extensions](./typing_extensions) directory. - The documentation at [typing.readthedocs.io](https://typing.readthedocs.io/) is maintained in the [docs directory](./docs). - A [discussion forum](https://github.com/python/typing/discussions) for typing-related user help is hosted here. Historically, this repository hosted a backport of the [`typing` module](https://docs.python.org/3/library/typing.html) for older Python versions. The last released version, supporting Python 2.7 and 3.4, is [available at PyPI](https://pypi.org/project/typing/). Workflow -------- See [CONTRIBUTING.md](/CONTRIBUTING.md) for more.
