IronPython

2.7.11

An interesting implementation of Python language that is capable of running on and using .NET Framework for fast and efficient embedding, writing and testing

The Common Language Runtime (CLR) specific to .NET Framework is well-known to provide an excellent base for creating programming languages.Not to mention the great amount of functionality of anything that comes from it.
IronPython is an implementation of the Python programming language running under .NET Framework. Considering that it supports an interactive console with a fully dynamic compilation, it can be an excellent tool for Python developers who want to use the features and functions of .NET Framework.
As it is well integrated with the rest of the .NET Framework, it means that one top advantage is the availability of all the .NET libraries, all that while maintaining compatibility with the Python language and having the Python libraries readily available. Therefore, programmers can now use a fast and convenient scripting language for all their needs, be it testing, embedding packages or features or writing a new application from scratch.
It is worth mentioning that although version 2 is still receiving bug fixes, the developers have shifted the focus of their new feature development efforts to the Python 3.x series. Nevertheless, IronPython continues to be a stable and supported base platform for production systems and it is highly recommended for anyone who did not ported their tools to Python 3 yet.
