All Packages

The `all-packages` library is a utility designed to systematically attempt the installation of every package listed on the Python Package Index (PyPI). As of its last major update (v1.0.1 in January 2022), it aimed to install over 349,000 packages. It operates by creating isolated virtual environments for each package, demonstrating the vast scope of the Python ecosystem. Given its specialized and potentially destructive function, it has a very low release cadence.
