Description : Backported and Experimental Type Hints for Python
The typing module was added to the standard library in Python 3.5 on a
provisional basis and will no longer be provisional in Python 3.7. However,
this means users of Python 3.5 - 3.6 who are unable to upgrade will not be
able to take advantage of new types added to the typing module, such as
typing.Text or typing.Coroutine.
.
The typing_extensions module contains both backports of these changes as well
as experimental types that will eventually be added to the typing module, such
as Protocol.
.
Users of other Python versions should continue to install and use the typing
module from PyPi instead of using this one unless specifically writing code
that must be compatible with multiple Python versions or requires experimental
types.
A dependency of the latest release of python-schema-salad. This package will be
team-maintained by Debian Med
