## Description

Grumpy is a native binary compiler that transforms Python source code into Go source code. By transpiling high-level scripts into a strongly typed intermediate representation, the system enables the creation of statically linked native binaries that operate independently of a traditional virtual machine interpreter.

The project distinguishes itself by providing a comprehensive runtime library that replicates standard Python data structures and object behaviors. This emulation layer ensures that compiled code maintains functional parity with the original source environment while leveraging the Go toolchain for build and execution.

Beyond its core transpilation capabilities, the system supports automated workflows that allow developers to execute scripts by compiling them into temporary packages. The codebase development process is governed by a mandatory two-party review policy for all contributions.
