{"categories":[{"label":"Utilities","url":"https://skillfed.io/packages/category/utilities/6"}],"enrichment":{"capability":"Wimpy provides a collection of commonly reused utility functions and helpers to reduce code duplication across projects.","skillfed_tags":["utility-library","helpers"],"use_cases":["Consolidate small helper functions you find yourself copying into multiple projects","Reduce boilerplate in personal or internal tools by importing shared utilities","Reference implementation for common patterns if you want to understand what helpers the author found most reusable"],"what_it_does":"Wimpy is a lightweight utility library that bundles commonly reused helper functions to avoid repeating the same code across multiple projects. It has no runtime dependencies and installs cleanly as a pure Python wheel. The package was created to centralize small, frequently copied utility snippets that the author found themselves reusing.\n\nThe package is dormant\u2014its last release was in October 2018, and while the repository remains active on GitHub with a recent commit in December 2024, there have been no new releases or updates to the package itself for many years. It remains available and usable, but you should treat it as a snapshot of utilities from that era rather than an actively maintained library.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you need exactly the helpers wimpy provides and you're comfortable with a dormant package. The MIT license is unrestrictive, there are no dependencies, and no known vulnerabilities. However, verify that its utilities match your use case first\u2014the lack of documentation and long dormancy mean you'll need to inspect the source code to know what you're getting."},"id":"wimpy","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/wimpy","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/wimpy.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/wimpy/"},"maintenance":{"status":"dormant"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2018-10-09","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"wimpy","python_support":"unspecified","summary":"Anti-copy-pasta"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":397213,"position":6963,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"0.6"}
