 @public and @private -- Document your module's interface
==========================================================

.. currentmodule:: public

This library provies two very simple decorators that document the *publicness*
of the names in your module.  They keep your module's ``__all__`` in sync so
you don't have to.

Please note that while the package is called :doc:`public <apiref>` and it
provides a top-level module named ``public``, the PyPI package is called
``atpublic`` due to name conflicts.


Requirements
============

``public`` requires Python 3.8 or newer.


Documentation
=============

A `simple guide`_ to using the library is available, along with a detailed
`API reference`_.
