web3.py
web3.py is the most widely used Python interface library for Ethereum, with over 4 million monthly downloads. It gives developers a dependable foundation for reading chain data, sending transactions, and working with contracts.
Python Devtooling for Ethereum
The ApeWorX collective maintains the Python devtooling stack for Ethereum developers, researchers, and protocol teams.
Key Projects and Libraries
Ape Framework
Ape Framework is an easy-to-use Web3 development tool. Users can compile, test, and interact with smart contracts all in one command line session. With our modular plugin system, Ape supports multiple smart contract languages, chains, developer tools/services, and more!
Silverback SDK
Silverback lets you create your own Python bots that respond to blockchain events in real-time. The Silverback library leverages the Ape development framework, as well as its ecosystem of plugins and packages, to let you develop capable automated bots that trigger your own custom Python logic whenever a specific event occurs.
Ethereum Python Libraries
ApeWorX also stewards foundational Ethereum Python libraries that have moved under our brand, keeping them maintained, documented, and aligned across the broader developer ecosystem.
Maintaining the Python Ethereum Stack
ApeWorX is a collective of infrastructure engineers, smart-contract developers, and Python maintainers stewarding the open-source tools that Ethereum builders rely on. Alongside Ape Framework and Silverback, our remit includes web3.py and related Ethereum Python projects now maintained under the ApeWorX brand, connecting application development, automation, testing, and chain interaction across the Python ecosystem.
