What a special moment. Python hits GA today on Vercel. Horizontally scalable serverless Python. Deploy apps with one command. Atomic deploys for your frontend and backend. Plus the full power of Vercel exposed with idiomatic hand-crafted Pythonic APIs. We've got you covered from AI SDK to Sandboxes. I wrote a blog post to tell the full story 👇

Petitio Trahendi (latin; Pull Requests) feels like an ancient concept. Assuming we keep pacing the frontier we'll advance toward Deployment Requests very soon.

You've never seen 🐍Python like this, trust me :) I've built an interactive 3D explorer of Python's parser & compiler pipeline. If you ever wanted to look under the hood and understand how Python actually works this is your chance. Thread🧵

5/ And yeah, of course it's done with the help of AI, but it was far from a one-shot. Took a couple of days of on-and-off tinkering and experimentation. Without AI it would take me a week or two so I would probably never do this.
