Python bindings for SFML
========================
This is version |version| of the Python bindings for `SFML`_, based on the
`final release of SFML2` and is made available under the terms of
the `LGPLv3`_ license.
Consider this version as a **stable** release candidate to version 1.4 since
they are still remaining minor task regarding the documentation, the unit tests
and the packaging. You may want to check out the todo lists: :doc:`here </todo>`.
By combining the strength of SFML with the ease of the Python language,
we can provide an amazing tool to quickly build multimedia software.
These bindings were created in large part by Jonathan De Wachter, with
significant contributions from Edwin Marshall. Other contributors include
Jorge Araya Navarro and Richard Sims.
