# The devel/py-typing-extensions,python3 port

## py3-typing_extensions-4.11.0 – backported type hints for python >= 3.5

## Description

    This was originally a backport of the standard library 'typing' module to
    Python versions older than 3.5.

    Typing defines a standard notation for Python function and variable type
    annotations. The notation can be used for documenting code in a concise,
    standard format, and it has been designed to also be used by static and runtime
    type checkers, static analyzers, IDEs and other tools.

    Today, 'typing_extensions' serves two related purposes:

    - Enable use of new type system features on older Python versions. For example,
      'typing.TypeGuard' is new in Python 3.10, but 'typing_extensions' allows
      users on Python 3.6 through 3.9 to use it too.
    - Enable experimentation with new type system PEPs before they are accepted and
      added to the 'typing' module.
