# Python/C API reference manual {#c-api-index}

This manual documents the API used by C and C++ programmers who want to write extension modules or embed Python. It is a companion to `extending-index`{.interpreted-text role="ref"}, which describes the general principles of extension writing but does not document the API functions in detail.
