+Implementing lazy imports
+'''''''''''''''''''''''''
+
+The example below shows how to implement lazy imports::
+
+    >>> import importlib.util
+    >>> import sys
+    >>> def lazy_import(name):
+    ...     spec = importlib.util.find_spec(name)
+    ...     loader = importlib.util.LazyLoader(spec.loader)
+    ...     spec.loader = loader
+    ...     module = importlib.util.module_from_spec(spec)
+    ...     sys.modules[name] = module
+    ...     loader.exec_module(module)
+    ...     return module
+    ...
+    >>> lazy_typing = lazy_import("typing")
+    >>> #lazy_typing is a real module object,
+    >>> #but it is not loaded in memory yet.
+    >>> lazy_typing.TYPE_CHECKING
+    False
