# pytact

`pytact` is the reserved Python package name for **tact: a high contact/tactile fidelity dynamics simulator**.

This pre-alpha release exists to establish the package name while the simulator is being prepared for public Python packaging. It is intentionally small, but not a throwaway placeholder: the package imports, exposes version metadata, and points to the intended project identity.

## Current status

- Package name: `pytact`
- Project identity: `tact`
- Scope: robotics dynamics simulation with contact-rich and tactile-focused interactions
- Release status: pre-alpha name reservation

The full simulator API is not published in this release. Future releases are expected to provide the actual Python API and native runtime assets under this package name.

## Why this package exists

The project previously used the working name `tact`. The PyPI name `pytact` is being reserved as the intended public package name before the simulator is repackaged and released.

## Import check

```python
import pytact

print(pytact.__version__)
print(pytact.PROJECT_STATEMENT)
```
