Whenever – typed and DST-safe datetimes for Python

Re:Whenever – typed and DST-safe datetimes for Python by mark-r on Sunday April 13, 2025 @10:07AM (#43672913)

Is there any part of the Python standard library written in Rust? I would see that as a big impediment to having Whenever adopted as standard.

I don’t think so, but they do offer a pure-Python version as well.

True, but does it suffer in efficiency? I wish they had included the pure Python version in their benchmark.
