+# 🐍 PyPI Mirror on Hugging Face
+
+This dataset provides a partial mirror of [PyPI](https://pypi.org), hosted on Hugging Face for research, offline usage, and reproducibility.
+
+## 📦 Contents
+- Popular Python packages (e.g. `numpy`, `pandas`, `torch`, `transformers`, `scikit-learn`, `matplotlib`, `jupyterlab`)
+- Multiple versions retained for historical compatibility
+- Organized in a folder structure similar to PyPI:
+```
+/simple/<package_name>/index.html # Simple API index
+/packages/<package_name>/<version>/<filename>
+```
+## 🔧 Usage
+
+### 1. Configure pip
+You can point `pip` to this mirror by editing `~/.pip/pip.conf` (Linux/macOS) or `%APPDATA%\pip\pip.ini` (Windows):
+```ini
+[global]
+index-url = https://huggingface.co/datasets/<username>/pypi-mirror/resolve/main/simple
+```
+
+Or use it per-install:
+```
+pip install numpy --index-url https://huggingface.co/datasets/ThongCoder/pypi-mirror/resolve/main/simple
+```
+
+### 2. Direct downloads
+All wheels and source distributions are also accessible via HTTPS:
+```
+wget https://huggingface.co/datasets/ThongCoder/pypi-mirror/resolve/main/packages/numpy/1.24.4/numpy-1.24.4-cp310-cp310-manylinux.whl
+```
