+ +No. + +The `tomli.loads` function returns a plain `dict` that is populated with builtin types and types from the standard library only. +Preserving comments requires a custom type to be returned so will not be supported, +at least not by the `tomli.loads` and `tomli.load` functions. + +Look into [TOML Kit](https://github.com/sdispater/tomlkit) if preservation of style is what you need. + +### Is there a `dumps`, `write` or `encode` function? + +[Tomli-W](https://github.com/hukkin/tomli-w) is the write-only counterpart of Tomli, providing `dump` and `dumps` functions. + +The core library does not include write capability, as most TOML use cases are read-only, and Tomli intends to be minimal. + +### How do TOML types map into Python types?
