Drop support for Python 3.7 #89

Closed jparise closed 1 year ago

jparise commented 1 year ago

Python 3.7 will reach the end of its supported life in June 2023. I was planning to wait until that date to drop support for Python 3.7 in this library, but I'm just going to do it now because ...

  1. There are four newer 3.x Python versions out there, and they should be accessible to everyone that is currently running 3.7.
  2. This is a small, niche library that's only about a year old, so I don't think this change will impact a large install base.
  3. There are a few Python 3.8+ features I want to use (like Literal), and it's not worth looking for compatibility options for only a six month support window.
