#2If you like this, I do a weekly roundup of open source projects that includes an interview with one of the devs you can subscribe to.

#3Nice. Although I wish the documentation was less sparse.

Is tree featured on there?

#6For those using Bazel this looks like a pretty helpful example
of developing and releasing a cross-platform Python package with native-libs (C++ in this case).
I've wondered for a while how Deepmind manages their (Python & C++) codebase. This is a small window into that I think, and you can see that they're likely using internal 'Blaze' Python rules and rely on the maintenance of compatibility with the open-source Bazel rules. `py_library` is used in `tree/BUILD`, but it is not loaded explicitly as is expected with Bazel these days; the rule definition is loaded by Bazel implicitly.

Combining C++ with python via pybind is something bazel really excels at, with CMake you end up maintaining two disjoint build and packaging systems.

I thought implicitly doing anything is against the whole bazel philosophy.

#9From the tree docs:
> tree has originally been part of TensorFlow and is available as tf.nest.
The tf.nest docs can be found here and may be more useful for now: https://www.tensorflow.org/api_docs/python/tf/nest
I'm glad this is being moved out of TensorFlow. It's a really useful library on its own and I've found myself reaching for it on projects without wanting to import all of TensorFlow.

You're right, this is likely to require an explicit load in the future, iirc. As for now, the py_* rules are so common that they are implicit. Loading replacement py_* rules overrides the built-in.
