tdqm
Alias for typos of tqdm
Decision gist · record as of 2026-08-14
Yes, if you intend to use tqdm and typed 'tdqm' by mistake—the alias will redirect you correctly. Otherwise, install tqdm directly instead. The alias package itself adds no value beyond typo correction and has not been updated since its initial release in 2020. The underlying tqdm library is production-stable and widely used, but this wrapper package offers no independent maintenance or enhancement.AI-flagged interpretation of the facts on this page — verify before relying
Before you install
- Low install friction with a single lightweight runtime dependency (tqdm).
- The underlying tqdm package is actively maintained with recent commits and substantial community adoption (31281 stars), suggesting stable long-term support.

What it is and what it does
tdqm is a redirect alias for the tqdm progress bar library. When installed, it provides access to tqdm's progress-meter functionality, which wraps iterables to display real-time progress bars in terminals and notebooks. The package itself does not add new features; it exists to catch common typos of the tqdm package name and direct users to the correct library.
The underlying tqdm library is designed for minimal overhead (approximately 60ns per iteration) and works across platforms (Linux, Windows, Mac, FreeBSD, NetBSD, Solaris/SunOS) without requiring external dependencies beyond Python. It supports multiple usage patterns: wrapping iterables directly, manual control via context managers, and command-line piping for monitoring long-running processes.
Use it for
- Display progress during long-running loops in data processing or batch jobs
- Monitor file I/O operations like backups or data transfers with real-time speed and ETA
- Pipe command-line tools through tqdm to visualize throughput of Unix pipelines
- Track iteration progress in machine learning training loops or batch processing
- Provide user feedback in CLI applications without adding significant computational overhead
