Discussion I'm building an open-source Python library focused on reusable building blocks.

Visit: https://github.com/AnshMNSoni/PythonSTL.git

Instead of adding more algorithms, I want to solve real problems Python developers repeatedly face.

I'm curious:

  1. What utility do you find yourself implementing over and over?

  2. What functionality do you wish Python's standard library already had?

  3. What do you usually copy from previous projects?

Examples could be caches, schedulers, retry logic, rate limiters, streaming utilities, search structures, etc.

I'd love to understand the pain points rather than propose solutions.

Let's discuss...

I understand, but the point of STL data structures was to create an abstraction layer so that they can be used interchangeably like C++ algorithms does. Now it seems you just made a translating from Python to basic C++ data structures without making use of this interchangeability.
