### Tools {#tools}
Packages inside nixpkgs are written by hand. However many tools exist in
community to help save time. No tool is preferred at the moment.
Packages inside nixpkgs must use the `buildPythonPackage` or `buildPythonApplication` function directly,
because we can only provide security support for non-vendored dependencies.

- [poetry2nix](https://github.com/nix-community/poetry2nix)

as it already prefetches the source, parses dependencies for common formats and prefills most things in `meta`.
