Description

Create Unix daemon processes from Python code using conventional daemon behavior. It helps services detach, manage process state, and follow expected patterns for long-running background programs.

This is a library for service developers, not a daemon by itself. Background processes need careful logging, permissions, shutdown handling, and configuration because failures may be invisible to normal desktop users.
