=============================
This guide only covers the basic tools for creating extensions provided
as part of this version of CPython. Third party tools like
`Cython <https://cython.org/>`_, `cffi <https://cffi.readthedocs.io>`_,
`SWIG <https://www.swig.org>`_ and `Numba <https://numba.pydata.org/>`_
offer both simpler and more sophisticated approaches to creating C and C++
extensions for Python.
