minus-squareDiplomjodler@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·2 months ago Everything is in one library which offers consistency for all operations. You can use forward slashes on Windows paths, which makes for much better readability. You can access all the parts of a pathlib object with attributes like .stem, .suffix or .parent. You can easily find the differences between paths with .relative_to() You can easily build up complex paths with the / operator (no string additions). Just off the top of my head.
