Open Source Development with ActiveState

ActiveState is committed to supporting the open source community through seamless integration with PyPI’s Trusted Publishing mechanism and streamlined collaboration workflows. As a trusted publisher, ActiveState enables developers to securely publish Python packages to PyPI without managing long-lived API tokens, reducing security risks while simplifying the publication process.

Our platform serves as a comprehensive solution for open source maintainers and contributors, providing tools to build, manage, and distribute Python runtimes with reproducible environments across multiple operating systems. Through the State Tool and ActiveState Platform, teams can create consistent development environments, manage dependencies efficiently, and automate the build and publication pipeline from source to PyPI.
