Description

A Python language implementation written in Java and running on the Java Virtual Machine. It is useful when Python code needs to integrate closely with Java libraries or JVM environments.

Use it when a project explicitly targets Jython. It is not a drop-in replacement for modern CPython in every case, so check library and Python-version compatibility.

How to run

jython
