module was added to the standard library in Python 3.5 on a provisional basis and will no longer be provisional in Python 3.7. However, this means users of Python 3.5 - 3.6 who are unable to upgrade will not be able to take advantage of new types added to thetyping

typing
module from PyPi instead of using this one unless specifically writing code that must be compatible with multiple Python versions or requires experimental types.
