* Main module formal interface. *

:details: In larger projects, formal interfaces are helping to define a trustable contract.
          Currently there are two commonly used approaches: 
          [ABCMetadata](https://docs.python.org/3/library/abc.html) or [Python Protocols](https://peps.python.org/pep-0544/)

       see also:
