PEP 750 introduced t-strings for Python 3.14. In fact, they are so new that as of Python 3.14.0b1 there still isn't any documentation yet for t-strings. 😅 As such, this blog post will hopefully help explain what exactly t-strings are and what you might use them for by

It's been a tough couple of days. Microsoft's support for the Faster CPython project was canceled yesterday, and my heart goes out to the majority of the team that was laid off. A hard day for me, but even harder for others. If you are looking for top-notch expertise in the CPython core, reach out and I can connect you.

This also leads to the introduction of core metadata version 2.5. Motivation ...
