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.

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.

A Tale of Two Kitchens - Hypermodernizing Your Python Code Base
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.

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?

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.

Type Checkers: which one you use and why?

I had a great experience with Scala and hopefully it will get more popular
scala has 2 healthy and pretty complete lib ecosystems : check out typelevel and ZIO. Both are FP oriented, which might not be your cup of tea at first glance but I would encourage you to try em out ! Softest introduction would be to start with the typelevel cats library and build up from there. The excellent Scala with Cats will ease you softly into an FP mindset. It's a bit dated and for scala 2 only but translating to Scala 3 is a very good exercise if you feel so inclined !

Is it prudent to use Scala for anything new?
Last but not least, Scala is currently the language with one of the best effect systems in my opinion (https://zio.dev/). Kotlin for example has copied the approach with https://arrow-kt.io/ which I think is great actually. But when comparing Scala and Kotlin here, Scala wins by a large margin, it is a completely different world. It's like building a highly concurrent system in Erlang vs C.
Of course, if you don't want to learn things like union types, traits/typeclasses and effects (similar to async/await but more powerful) you will be annoyed by Scala. But once you learned them, you can never go back.

Is Parallel Programming Hard, and, If So, What Can You Do About It? [pdf]
I use ZIO (http://zio.dev) for Scala which makes parallel programming trivial.
Wraps different styles of asynchronicity e.g. callbacks, futures, fibers into one coherent model. And has excellent resource management so you can be sure that when you are forking a task that it will always clean up after itself.
Have yet to see anything that comes close whilst still being practical i.e. you can leverage the very large ecosystem of Java libraries.

40x Faster! We rewrote our project with Rust!
The one advantage Rust has over Scala is that it detects data races at compile time, and that's a big time saver if you use low level thread synchronization. However, if you write pure FP code with ZIO or Cats Effect that's basically a non-issue anyway.

What’s so great about functional programming anyway?
> It's a weakness of functional programming, not the language.
I would strongly object this.
Have you seen ZIO?

Switching career from F# to scala
But overall, I'm happier with Scala. It has not one, but two lively FP communities. I recommend that you pick one of them: ZIO or TypeLevel (Cats Effect, fs2, http4s, ...). To some extent, you can mix TypeLevel libraries in ZIO projects.
