``importlib_resources`` is a backport of Python standard library
`importlib.resources
`_
module for older Pythons.

The key goal of this module is to replace parts of `pkg_resources
`_ with a
solution in Python's stdlib that relies on well-defined APIs. This makes
reading resources included in packages easier, with more stable and consistent
semantics.

New features are introduced in this third-party library and later merged
