PyPI is the Python Packaging Index, pronounced like "pie pee eye."
Python
For distributing *applications*, rather than libraries, there's probably a post from dsufft about it on https://caremad.io
[which *might be* https://caremad.io/posts/2013/07/setup-vs-requirement/ but this editor isn't sure.]

Important side note:
There's a fan-cut music video for Lady Gaga's "Telephone" but based on the action show 24.

Other important side note:
Read 17776 for stories about sentient spacecraft: https://www.sbnation.com/a/17776-football

The thing you use to *upload* to PyPI is `twine` https://pypi.org/project/twine/
(not to be confused with the tool for authoring interactive fiction)
There is a `test.pypi.org` to test your packaging / upload / distribution process before giving it to PyPI for real.
devpi is a thing you can use to host your own private package repository. https://pypi.org/project/devpi/
For a caching interface to the PyPI.org repository, see bandersnatch: https://pypi.org/project/bandersnatch/

You (and/or your company) can help PyPI stay running with a donation to the Python Software Foundation, earmarked for the Packaging Workshop, through the "Donate Today" link on the bottom of https://pypi.org/
You can set up a regularly recurring donation!
