.. note::

   This guide only covers the basic tools for building and distributing
   extensions that are provided as part of this version of Python. Third party
   tools offer easier to use and more secure alternatives. Refer to the `quick
   recommendations section <https://packaging.python.org/guides/tool-recommendations/>`__
   in the Python Packaging User Guide for more information.

This document describes the Python Distribution Utilities ("Distutils") from
the module developer's point of view, describing the underlying capabilities
that ``setuptools`` builds on to allow Python developers to make Python modules
and extensions readily available to a wider audience.
