This could live in a cuelang repo, like cuelang/lang-python is someone wants to take this on.

@jtrakk could you perhaps comment on which features you would want to expose in the API. The API of CUE is quite large.

Even a minimal set of features could be useful. For example, translation between CUE strings and built-in Python types (or even JSON strings) would be enough to get started with CUE if it were packaged on PyPI so I could just pip install it.

SInce Cue is a Go project, it would probably make sense to look at https://github.com/google/starlark-go

This project has been created in the meantime: https://pypi.org/project/pycue/
It's a wrapper around the cue CLI command.

I'm wondering if CUE might support Python bindings.
As far as I know, the simplest and most widely supported interfaces are via CFFI, as in this Go example. Binaries can be distributed in the wheel format on PyPI.
