As the userbase of Click grows, more and more major feature requests pop up in
|
|
Click's bugtracker. As reasonable as it may be for those features to be bundled
|
|
with Click instead of being a standalone project, many of those requested
|
|
features are either highly experimental or have unproven practical use, while
|
|
potentially being a burden to maintain.
|
|
|
|
This is why click-contrib_ exists. The GitHub organization is a collection of
|
|
possibly experimental third-party packages whose featureset does not belong
|
|
into Click, but also a playground for major features that may be added to Click
|
|
in the future. It is also meant to coordinate and concentrate effort on writing
|
|
third-party extensions for Click, and to ease the effort of searching for such
|
|
extensions. In that sense it could be described as a low-maintenance
|
|
alternative to extension repositories of other frameworks.
|
|
|
|
Please note that the quality and stability of those packages may be different
|
|
than what you expect from Click itself. While published under a common
|
|
organization, they are still projects separate from Click.
