# Python Preserves

This package ([`preserves` on pypi.org](https://pypi.org/project/preserves/)) implements
[Preserves](https://preserves.dev/) for Python 3.x. It provides the core [semantics][] as well

(including [canonicalization](https://preserves.dev/canonical-binary.html)) for Preserves. It
also implements [Preserves Schema](https://preserves.dev/preserves-schema.html) and [Preserves
Path](https://preserves.dev/preserves-path.html).
