# PyPI

A package index (repository) for finding, installing, and publishing Python software packages.

**Route:** surfaced by the AI Development and Deployment Infrastructure lane's de-branded queries → dependency to vercel.com.

**Why it's on the map:** Vercel’s AI SDK and other Python‑based tooling depend on PyPI as the distribution channel for Python packages; without PyPI the anchor’s Python dependencies would have no canonical source.

**Receipts** (verbatim from its page this run):

> The Python Package Index (PyPI) is a repository of software for the Python programming language.

> PyPI helps you find and install software developed and shared by the Python community.

> Find, install and publish Python packages with the Python Package Index

**Edges:**

- competitor [[agentframework-net]]
- competitor [[microsoft-com]]
