Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Google lays off its Python team
it's open source! check out https://github.com/google/pytype and https://github.com/google/pytype/blob/main/docs/developers/t... for more on the multi-file runner

Enhance Your Project Quality with These Top Python Libraries
Pytype checks and infers types for your Python code - without requiring type annotations. Pytype can catch type errors in your Python code before you even run it.

Pyre from Meta, pyright from Microsoft and PyType from Google provide additional assistance. They can 'infer' types based on code flow and existing types within the code.

Mypy 1.6 Released
we've written a little bit about what pytype does differently here: https://google.github.io/pytype/
our main focus is to be able to work with unannotated and partially-annotated code, and treat it on par with fully annotated code.
-
Mypy 1.5 Released
So, I tried out pytype the other day, and it was a not a good experience. It doesn't support PEP 420 (implicit namespace packages), which means you have to litter __init__.py files everywhere, or it will create filename collisions. See https://github.com/google/pytype/issues/198 for more information. I've since started testing out pyre.

Writing Python like it's Rust
What is the smart money doing for type checking in Python? I've used mypy which seems to work well but is incredibly slow (3-4s to update linting after I change code). I've tried pylance type checking in VS Code, which seems to work well + fast but is less clear and comprehensive than mypy. I've also seen projects like pytype [1] and pyre [2] used by Google/Meta, but people say those tools don't really make sense to use unless you're an engineer for those companies.
Am just curious if mypy is really the best option right now?

PyMEL's new type stubs
At Luma, we're using mypy to check nearly our entire code-base, including our Maya-related code, thanks to these latest changes. Fully adopting mypy (or an alternative like pytype) is no small feat, but working within a fully type-annotated code base with a type checker to enforce accuracy is like coding in a higher plane of existence: fewer bugs, easier code navigation, faster dev onboarding, easier refactoring, and dramatically increased confidence about every change. I wrote about some deeper insights in these posts.

Forma: An efficient vector-graphics renderer
i work on https://github.com/google/pytype which is largely developed internally and then pushed to github every few days. the github commits are associated with the team's personal github accounts. pytype is not an "official google product" insofar as the open source version is presented as is without official google support, but it is "production code" in the sense that it is very much used extensively within google.

Ruff – an fast Python Linter written in Rust
pytype dev here - thanks for the kind words :) whole-program analysis on unannotated or partially-annotated code is our particular focus, but there's surprisingly little dark PLT magic involved; in particular you don't need to be an academic type theory wizard to understand how it works. our developer docs[1] have more info, but at a high level we have an interpreter that virtually executes python bytecode, tracking types where the cpython interpreter would have tracked values.
it's worth exploring some of the other type checkers as well, since they make different tradeoffs - in particular, microsoft's pyright[2] (written in typescript!) can run incrementally within vscode, and tends to add new and experimentally proposed typing PEPs faster than we do.

Enhance Your Project Quality with These Top Python Libraries
YAPF (Yet Another Python Formatter): YAPF takes a different approach in that it’s based off of ‘clang-format’, a popular formatter for C++ code. YAPF reformats Python code so that it conforms to the style guide and looks good.

Why is Prettier rock solid?
I think I agree about the testing and labor of complicated translation rules.
But it doesn't appear that almost every pretty printer uses the Wadler pretty printing paper. It seems like MOST of them don't?
e.g. clang-format is one of the biggest and best, and it has a model that includes "unwrapped lines", a "layouter", a line break cost function, exhaustive search with memoization, and Dijikstra's algorithm:
https://llvm.org/devmtg/2013-04/jasper-slides.pdf
The YAPF Python formatter is based on this same algorithm - https://github.com/google/yapf
The Dart formatter used a model of "chunks, rules, and spans"
https://journal.stuffwithstuff.com/2015/09/08/the-hardest-pr...
It almost seems like there are 2 camps -- the functional algorithms for functional/expression-based languages, and other algorithms for more statement-based languages.
Though I guess Prettier/JavaScript falls on the functional side.
I just ran across this survey on lobste.rs and it seems to cover the functional pretty printing languages influenced by Wadler, but functional style, but not the other kind of formatter ("Google" formatters perhaps)

A Tale of Two Kitchens - Hypermodernizing Your Python Code Base
To get all your code into a consistent format the next step is to run a formatter. I recommend black, the well-known uncompromising code formatter, which is the most popular choice. Alternatives to black are autoflake, prettier and yapf, if you do not agree with blacks constraints.

Confused by Google's docstring "Attributes" section.
Google is surprisingly rigorous when it comes to code formatting. I have been a software engineer at Amazon and it was nothing like what the book says happens at Google. So the conventions you see for python docstring formatting are primarily designed to integrate with Google's internal tooling. By using docstrings following the Google conventions, you will ultimately end up with automated documentation and other fancy automated things (like type checking which they did in the docstring before there were type hints). Also notably, Google has an open source python formatting tool that they use internally called YAPF (which stands for "Yet Another Python Formatter". So if you really want to go all-in on Google python style, grab that, too.

Enable hyphenation only for code blocks
Only as recommendation: If the lines of the source code (here: you C code you aim to document) are kept short, in manageable bytes (similar to entries parser.add_argument in Clark's "Tiny Python Projects", example seldomly pass beyond the frequently recommended threshold of 80 characters/line), reporting with listings becomes easier (equally, the reading of the difference logs/views by git and vimdiff), than with lines of say 120 characters per line. Though we no longer are constrained to 80 characters per line by terminals/screens and punch cards (when Fortran still was FORTRAN), this is a reason e.g., yapf for Python allows you to choose between 4 spaces/indentation (PEP8 style), or 2 spaces/indentation (Google style).

3 popular Python style guides that will help your team write better code
There is also a formatter for Python files called yapf that your team can use to avoid arguing over formatting conventions. Plus, Google also provides a settings file for Vim, noting that the default settings should be enough if you're using Emacs.
What are some alternatives?
mypy - Optional static typing for Python
black - The uncompromising Python code formatter
pyright - Static Type Checker for Python
isort - A Python utility / library to sort imports.
