Python micro-libraries
----------------------

The following standard Python libraries have been "micro-ified" to fit in with
the philosophy of Micro Python.  They provide the core functionality of that
module and are intended to be a drop-in replacement for the standard Python
library.

The modules are available by their u-name, and also by their non-u-name.  The
non-u-name can be overridden by a file of that name in your package path.
For example, ``import json`` will first search for a file ``json.py`` or
directory ``json`` and load that package if it is found.  If nothing is found,
it will fallback to loading the built-in ``ujson`` module.
