Status of wrapt (September 2025) - Graham Dumpleton
wrapt provides robust decorator and monkey-patching utilities, maintained mainly for compatibility and occasional bug fixes, with a planned major version bump to 2.0.
Decorator Patterns in Practice: Python, Java, JavaScript, Ruby, and Scala
Python decorators are highly expressive, capable of accepting parameters, nested layers, and manipulating function metadata. This flexibility makes them suitable for permission validation design.
Omitting the @Slot decorator means that the function can still act as a slot, but it won't provide the advantages of reduced memory usage and increased speed.
