13- **README.md**: Source of truth. Hierarchical categories with alphabetically ordered entries.
14- **CONTRIBUTING.md**: Submission guidelines and review criteria.
15- **SPONSORSHIP.md**: Sponsor tiers, placement rules, and the editorial-independence policy. Sponsor content sits in the README header and must never influence which projects get listed.
16- **website/**: Static site generator that builds awesome-python.com from README.md.
17  - `build.py`: Parses README.md and renders HTML via Jinja2 templates.
18  - `fetch_github_stars.py`: Fetches star counts into `website/data/`.
19  - `readme_parser.py`: Markdown-to-structured-data parser.
20  - `templates/`, `static/`: Jinja2 templates and CSS/JS assets.
21  - `tests/`: Pytest tests for the build pipeline.
22- **Makefile**: `make install`, `make build`, `make preview`, `make test`, `make fetch_github_stars`.
23- **pyproject.toml**: Uses `uv` for dependency management. Python >=3.13.

25## Key Rules
26 
27- Alphabetical ordering within categories is mandatory.
28- Quality over quantity. Only "awesome" projects.
29- One project per PR.
