It allows static type checkers like mypy and pyright to understand and validate code that uses pynput's keyboard and mouse input APIs. The stubs are maintained as part of the typeshed project and are kept in sync with pynput version 1.8.1.\n\nThis package contains no runtime code\u2014it exists purely to help your type checker understand pynput's API surface. You install it alongside pynput (or in your development environment) so that when you run type checking, the checker can verify that you're calling pynput functions correctly and with the right argument types.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you use pynput and run static type checking. It has no runtime cost, low install friction, and is actively maintained. Install it in your development or CI environment alongside pynput to catch type-related bugs early. Not necessary if you don't use a type checker or don't use pynput."},"id":"types-pynput","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/types-pynput","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/types-pynput.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/types-pynput/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-07-12","license_spdx":"Apache-2.0","license_treatment":"permissive","name":"types-pynput","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"Typing stubs for pynput"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":88638,"position":13711,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"1.8.1.20260712"}
