It allows multiple clients to modify shared data structures simultaneously, with automatic conflict resolution ensuring all replicas converge to the same state without explicit coordination. The package exposes Yrs's core data types and operations through a Python API, making CRDT functionality accessible to Python developers building real-time collaborative features.\n\nThe library depends on anyio, exceptiongroup, and typing-extensions for async support and compatibility across Python versions. It is actively maintained, supports Python 3.10 through 3.14, and is distributed as compiled wheels for most common platforms. With over 2 million monthly downloads, it occupies a stable position in the top 5000 PyPI packages, indicating real-world adoption despite being in Beta development status.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you need CRDT functionality in Python. pycrdt is actively maintained, permissively licensed, and backed by a mature Rust implementation (Yrs). Medium install friction is manageable for most environments. No known vulnerabilities. Best suited for developers building collaborative or distributed systems who want production-grade CRDT semantics without implementing them from scratch."},"id":"pycrdt","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/pycrdt","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/pycrdt.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/pycrdt/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-07-30","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"pycrdt","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"Python bindings for Yrs"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":2311618,"position":3147,"tier":"top_5000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"0.14.2"}
