Description

This is not at all important or urgent, but I was reading the [Advanced tutorial: How to write reusable apps](https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/6.1/intro/reusable-apps/) and the below sentence is a bit awkward:

The Python Package Index (PyPI) has a vast range of packages you can use in your own Python programs.

Recommend rephrasing to either:

  • The Python Package Index (PyPI) has a wide range of packages you can use in your own Python programs.
  • The Python Package Index (PyPI) has a vast array of packages you can use in your own Python programs.

I can do this later but adding here so as not to forget. (Alternatively, if any brand new contributors see it and want to take it on, something like this is a great first ticket to get your feet wet - please feel free to go for it!)

Hi Stephanie, thank you for the suggestion
We generally avoid minor wording updates unless it is clearly wrong or confusing as this would invalidate translations. "vast range" is understandable to me, so I am not keen to update this unless we are doing a larger piece of work updating the tutorial already
