[Python-ideas] JavaScript-Style Object Creation in Python (using a constructor function instead of a class to create objects)

[Stephan Houben]

Hi all,

Thanks to this thread I learned about the "attrs" library. I am a
heavy namedtuple (ab)user but I think
I will be using attrs going forward.

If something like attrs would made it in the standard library it would
be awesome.

Thanks,

Stephan
