Thanks to maintainers working on projects like rwt, you can use Tidelift to give your teams access to a continuously curated stream of validated data about vetted components they need to make intelligent decisions, faster.
You can feel confident bringing rwt into your application’s dependency tree because the maintainers of rwt are paid by Tidelift to ensure their open source projects follow standardized secure software development practices.
RWT (Run With This) is a Python library that provides on-demand dependency resolution, making packages available for the duration of an interpreter session. RWT is not intended to solve production dependency management, but does aim to address the other, one-off scenarios around dependency management. RWT is a compliment to Pip and Virtualenv and Setuptools, intended to more readily address the on-demand needs and supersede some features like setup_requires. Learn more here.
RWT is available via the PyPI package manager.
