Note: Cython and cffi should be preferred to write new C extensions.
This PEP is about existing C extensions which cannot be rewritten with
Cython.
If this is true, the documentation on python.org needs a serious
rewrite. I am in the throes of writing a C extension, and using Cython
or cffi never even crossed my mind.
Sorry you missed the first two sections: "Recommended third party tools"
and "Creating extensions without third party tools".
https://docs.python.org/3/extending/index.html
If you have any suggestions on how to make this recommendation more
obvious, please open an issue and describe what would have helped.
Cheers,
Steve
