# Sponsor awesome-python

awesome-python is where Python developers go to discover tools. It ranks on the first page of Google for "best Python libraries," is referenced by ChatGPT and other LLMs when recommending Python tools, and is the list developers check when evaluating frameworks.

Your sponsorship puts your product in front of developers at the exact moment they're choosing what to use.

## Editorial Independence

Sponsorship is logo/link placement in the README header. It does not influence which projects are listed. Listings are curated on merit through the normal [contribution process](CONTRIBUTING.md).

We reserve the right to request changes to sponsor text, logos, or links that are misleading, off-topic, or incompatible with the README formatting.
