Support for C extension is improving in PyPy. Here is a small list which is known to work with PyPy: https://bitbucket.org/pypy/compatibility/wiki/CCompatible They have made progress on a complex C extension like wxPython: http://morepypy.blogspot.com/2010/05/running-wxpython-on-top-of-pypy.html Here is a big list of libraries/frameworks which works in PyPy: https://bitbucket.org/pypy/compatibility/wiki/Home Now a days I prefer to use 'ctypes' based extensions, so that it will work across CPython,PyPy,Jython & IronPython.
