Quoting https://github.com/hpyproject/hpy/

"HPy is no longer actively maintained. We consider the project a successful demonstration of an abstract, JIT- and alternative-Python-friendly C API for Python extensions, and of a possible path for evolving CPython without exposing implementation details."

It does not make sense therefore to be listed under https://docs.python.org/3/c-api/intro.html#recommended-third-party-tools as a recommended third party tool.

No issue filed as this is a trivial change.

Sorry, something went wrong.

Uh oh!
