Details

This year, Meta marks its 10th year of sponsoring the Python Software Foundation (PSF). Python is the most widely used core language across Meta's engineering stack, from the backend of major Meta services like Instagram and Threads to cutting-edge AI research.

Meta has supported the following activities for the stability and innovation of Python.

  • Developer-in-Residence Program: Employing full-time developers to carry out core work improving the Python language and ecosystem
  • Strengthening PyPI (Python Package Index) security: Supporting infrastructure so developers worldwide can safely share and use packages
  • Community and education support: Supporting conferences like PyCon US and sponsoring educational programs like PyLadies

For Meta, sponsoring the PSF is more than a donation—it is a strategic investment to secure the long-term stability of its own technology stack. Meta plans to continue supporting the growth of the Python ecosystem in step with its expanding AI investments and infrastructure.
