Description

Call C libraries from Python without writing a full Python extension by hand. It helps developers connect Python code to existing native libraries, system APIs, and performance-sensitive functions.

This is a programming interface, not a user-facing app. Native calls can crash the process or bypass Python safety expectations when used incorrectly, so projects should validate function signatures and trusted library paths.
