Introducing DotNetPy: Python Interop for Modern .NET, Reimagined
The Problem .NET and Python are two of the most widely used platforms in enterprise software today, yet bringing them together has always been painful. Existing interop libraries either require heavy runtime dependencies, lack support for modern .NET features like Native AOT, or demand complex project configurations with Source Generators. If you've ever wanted to leverage Python's rich data science and ML ecosystem from a C# application — without leaving your .NET toolchain — you know the friction. DotNetPy is my answer to that problem. Version 0.5.0 is now available on NuGet. What Is DotNetPy? DotNetPy (pronounced dot-net-pie ) is a .NET library for executing Python code directly from C#. It wraps the Python C API behind a clean, minimal interface. Here's the entire "hello world": var executor = Python . GetInstance (); var temperatures = new [] { 23.5 , 19.2 , 31.8 , 27.4 , 22.1 }; using var result = executor . ExecuteAndCapture ( @" import statistics result = {'mean': statistics.me
