CoinDesk reports:

IT Home, October 15 news: According to tech media Neowin today, Python 3.15 was released last week. Microsoft has now announced encouraging progress in the Windows on Arm ecosystem.

According to reports, after installing Python 3.15 on WoA devices, Python will default to the native Arm64 interpreter. Additionally, CPython's support for WoA has reached Tier 2.

As of last month, 94% of the top 1,000 most downloaded PyPI packages natively support WoA, and over 2,500 packages in the Anaconda repository also support WoA.

Although the above advancements have significantly improved the Arm user experience, it is important to note that Microsoft’s data only reflects the availability of wheel installation packages and does not indicate end-to-end application compatibility.
