✅ Maya Python API 2.0 Stub Progress

Total progress: 212 / 306 classes complete. Progress 69%

Last Updated: 2025-10-23

Estimated number of unit tests: ~13,474¹

This public repository tracks the ongoing development of strict, manually unit-tested Python stubs for Autodesk Maya's Python API 2.0.

These stubs provide accurate type hints, correct argument signatures, and are fully compatible with static type checkers like MyPy.

🎯 Project Goals

• Deliver strict but accurate Maya stubs - no autogenerated junk.
• Each class and function is individually verified through unit testing in a real Maya 2026 environment.
• Designed to support the same or later Python versions of Maya's interpreter.
  • Maya 2026: 3.11+
  • Maya 2025: 3.11+
  • Maya 2024: 3.10+
  • Maya 2023: 3.9+
  • Maya 2022: 3.7+

• Once full coverage is reached for Maya 2026, older Maya versions will follow.
• Stubs will be created in this order: 2026, 2025, 2024, 2023, ...

🛠️ What to Expect

• Progress is tracked live from the GitHub page.
• New classes are completed regularly - this is a solo project with weekly updates.
• Once v1.0 is complete, distribution details will be announced here.
• Pricing will remain accessible for individuals and freelancers, with tiered licensing for studios.

⭐ How You Can Support

• Star the GitHub repository to follow development and get notified when releases drop.
• Share this project with fellow Technical Artists or Maya Python scripters who demand better tooling.
• Your support makes a huge difference for a one-person dev shop building tools for the community.
