  • ruff

    An extremely fast Python linter and code formatter, written in Rust.

  • I know there's attention to the pattern matching issue, but I want to explicitly mention that this is the biggest blocker for me in considering ruff.

  • ruff-pre-commit

    A pre-commit hook for Ruff.

  • And here's a pre-commit hook to save us some time. https://github.com/charliermarsh/ruff-pre-commit

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  • rust

    Empowering everyone to build reliable and efficient software.

  • Rust also has other things like stricter pointer provenance, struct field reordering, more inlining, all of which could help with performance.

  • Flake8

    flake8 is a python tool that glues together pycodestyle, pyflakes, mccabe, and third-party plugins to check the style and quality of some python code.

  • Here are insights about flake8, black, and mypy and the amount of work that went into mypy seems … just massive?!

  • black

    The uncompromising Python code formatter

  • RIIR

    why not Rewrite It In Rust

  • Yes, one can hope, but I wouldn't bet on it and I wouldn't suggest to RIIR. I don't want to be that person that pops up uncalled for and asks to Rewrite It In Rust. One might think "Oh it is just one additional issue to the ~2.2k already opened mypy issues" if they have at all realized that there are that many open issues.

  • mypy

    Optional static typing for Python

  • Here are insights about flake8, black, and mypy and the amount of work that went into mypy seems … just massive?!

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.

  • pyright

    Static Type Checker for Python

  • I wonder how many learnt lessons went into pyright, which only has 7 open issues at the moment.
