+PEPs API
+========
+
+There is a read-only API of published PEPs available at:
+
+* https://peps.python.org/api/peps.json
+
+The structure is like:
+
+.. code-block:: javascript
+
+   {
+     "<PEP number>": {
+       "number": integer,
+       "title": string,
+       "authors": string,
+       "discussions_to": string | null,
+       "status": "Accepted" | "Active" | "Deferred" | "Draft" | "Final" | "Provisional" | "Rejected" | "Superseded" | "Withdrawn",
+       "type": "Informational" | "Process" | "Standards Track",
+       "topic": "governance" | "packaging" | "release" | "typing" | "",
+       "created": string,

+       "superseded_by": string | null,
+       "url": string
+     },
+   }
+
+Date values are formatted as DD-MMM-YYYY,
+and multiple dates are combined in a comma-separated list.
+
+For example:
+
+.. code-block:: json
