![](https://byob.yarr.is/tjarkdoering/pycon/treebadge)

A conversion tool. To convert to a reasonable sysem of units (aka. the metric system). Written in python3.

It only converts to metric as other conversions should not be done anyway.

Thank you for converting to the metric system.  

## Supported conversions
