Warehouse is a web application that implements the canonical Python package index (repository); its production deployment is PyPI. It replaces an older code base that powered pypi.python.org.

The goal is to improve PyPI by making it:

• be more user-friendly
• have a more modern look
• have more features
• remove legacy APIs
• have more maintainable code with test coverage, docs, etc.
