Python-RSA is a pure-Python RSA implementation that supports encryption and decryption, signing and verifying signatures, and key generation (PKCS#1 v1.5). It can be used as a Python library or via the command line, and is distributed via pip as the `rsa` package. The project has been archived, and the maintainer notes it should be used with care due to limitations around timing attacks.
Maintenance status: The upstream project is marked as archived, so despite some later activity, it does not appear to be actively maintained as of today (2026-06-09).
Last release:
respx is a utility for mocking HTTPX and HTTP Core in Python tests, letting you patch HTTPX and define request routes with mock responses. It is useful for pytest-based testing, including a respx_mock fixture and optional marker to configure mock settings.
Actively maintained: Evidence shows ongoing work in 2026, with multiple recent updates (0.23.0 on 2026-04-07, 0.23.1 on 2026-04-08) and an upstream push on 2026-07-21.
Last release:
Python QR Code image generator that lets you generate QR codes as PNG images, SVG, or styled images. It can be used from the command line (including an installed `qr` script) or from Python APIs like `qrcode.make` and the `QRCode` class for more control over size, error correction, and output formatting.
Maintenance status: The GitHub source shows a recent upstream push (2026-03-25), but the provided changelog entries only go up to v8.2 (2025-05-01), so it appears active in the repo while published updates have slowed.
Last release:

Maintenance status: The repository appears largely quiet, with the most recent upstream push on 2025-06-17 and the latest listed update v1.2.0 on 2025-06-16, about a year before today (2026-06-09), suggesting no strong evidence of active ongoing maintenance cadence.
Last release:
PyOTP is a Python library for generating and verifying one-time passwords, implementing HOTP (RFC 4226) and TOTP (RFC 6238) for 2FA or MFA in web applications and other systems. It is useful for server-side OTP support, including generating provisioning URIs for OTP authenticator apps (and parsing those URIs) so users can set up credentials by scanning a QR code.
Actively maintained, evidence includes an upstream push on 2026-06-14 and a corresponding PyPI/GitHub tag update, v2.10.0, on 2026-06-14 (4 days before today).
Last release:
Pygments is a generic syntax highlighter written in Python, designed to prettify source code for code hosting, forums, wikis, and similar applications. It supports over 500 languages and text formats, making it useful when you need consistent syntax highlighting.
Pygments/pygments appears actively maintained, with an upstream push on 2026-08-17 and a corresponding update to 2.21.0 the same day, including multiple lexer and formatter improvements (not just a metadata bump).
Last release:
pycparser is a complete C99 parser written in pure Python, designed to parse C source code for applications that need to analyze or transform it. It is useful for tasks like static code checking, building a front end for specialized C compilers, and generating information such as unit-test discovery, and it can integrate with CFFI to parse C function and type declarations.
The repository (eliben/pycparser) appears actively maintained, with an upstream push as recent as 2026-06-08 and the latest published updates on 2026-01-21.
Last release:
pyasn1 is a generic ASN.1 library for Python that provides implementations of ASN.1 types plus standard BER, CER, and DER codecs. It is useful for building Python objects from ASN.1 definitions, encoding and decoding ASN.1 data structures, and loading or dumping ASN.1 structures from Python types, originally for SNMP and then generalized for other protocols.
Actively maintained: the upstream push and most recent updates are in July 2026 (last push 2026-07-09), indicating current development rather than a dormant state.
Last release:
propcache is a Python 3 library that provides a fast implementation of cached properties for Python 3.10+. It is designed to be nearly identical to functools.cached_property, with an additional under_cached_property option that caches using self._cache. Useful for speeding up computed properties in Python applications, including optional pure Python or compiled installs.
Actively maintained: The repository shows very recent activity (upstream push on 2026-08-17) and there were v0.5.1 and v0.5.2 updates in early May 2026, so it does not appear to be dormant or in maintenance mode.
Last release:
Pillow is the friendly Python Imaging Library (PIL) fork, providing image processing capabilities for Python. It supports many image file formats and includes an internal representation designed for fast access to common pixel formats, making it useful for building applications that load, manipulate, and process images.
Pillow appears actively maintained, with very recent upstream activity (last upstream push on 2026-07-08) and a steady stream of version updates in 2025-2026, including Pillow 12.3.0 on 2026-07-01.
