Expectations foster collaboration by giving teams a common language to express data quality tests in an intuitive way. You can automatically generate documentation for each set of validation results, making it easy for everyone to stay on the same page. This not only simplifies your data quality processes, but helps preserve your organization’s institutional knowledge about its data.\n\nLearn more about how data teams are using GX Core in our featured [case studies](https://greatexpectations.io/case-studies/).\n\n## Integration support policy\n\nGX Core supports Python `3.10` through `3.13`.\nExperimental support for Python `3.14` and later can be enabled by setting a `GX_PYTHON_EXPERIMENTAL` environment variable when installing `great_expectations`.\n\nFor data sources and other integrations that GX supports, see the [compatibility reference](https://docs.greatexpectations.io/docs/help/compatibility_reference) for additional information.\n\n## Get started\n\nGX recommends deploying GX Core within a virtual environment.
