+# The CPython Repository
+
+This section gives an overview of CPython's code structure and provides
+a summary of file locations for modules and built-ins.
+
+Source code layout
+==================
+
+The core interpreter implementation is in the [`Python/`](../Python) directory.
+Some of the files there are generated during the build process, that will be
+indicated by a comment at the top of the file.
+
+For a Python [`module`](https://docs.python.org/3/glossary.html#term-module),
+the typical layout is:
+
+* `Lib/{<module>}.py`
+* `Modules/_{<module>}.c` (if there's also a C accelerator module)
+* `Lib/test/test_{<module>}.py`
+* `Doc/library/{<module>}.rst`
+
+For an [`extension module`](https://docs.python.org/3/glossary.html#term-extension-module),
+the typical layout is:
+
+* `Modules/{<module>}module.c`
+* `Lib/test/test_{<module>}.py`
+* `Doc/library/{<module>}.rst`
+
+For [`bltin-types`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#bltin-types),
+the typical layout is:
+
+* `Objects/{<builtin>}object.c`
+* `Lib/test/test_{<builtin>}.py`
+* [`Doc/library/stdtypes.rst`](../Doc/library/stdtypes.rst)
+
+For [`built-in-funcs`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html#built-in-funcs),
+the typical layout is:
+
+* [`Python/bltinmodule.c`](../Python/bltinmodule.c)
+* [`Lib/test/test_builtin.py`](../Lib/test/test_builtin.py)
+* [`Doc/library/functions.rst`](../Doc/library/functions.rst)
+
+Some exceptions to these layouts are:
+
+* built-in type ``int`` is at [`Objects/longobject.c`](../Objects/longobject.c)
+* built-in type ``str`` is at [`Objects/unicodeobject.c`](../Objects/unicodeobject.c)
+* built-in module ``sys`` is at [`Python/sysmodule.c`](../Python/sysmodule.c)
+* built-in module ``marshal`` is at [`Python/marshal.c`](../Python/marshal.c)
+* Windows-only module ``winreg`` is at [`PC/winreg.c`](../PC/winreg.c)
