    PySonar2: a semantic indexer for Python with interprocedual type inference

  • Some other tools are also worth mentioning, like PySonar2 (a type inferences and indexer), AutoPep8 (which automatically fixes PEP8). Also, don’t forget to check out the Code Quality mailing list, which currently covers PEP8, Pyflakes, mccabe, Flake8 and pylint.

  • mypy

    Optional static typing for Python

  • Slightly different than the earlier two options, Mypy is a static type checker for Python. Its main requirement is that your code is annotated using the Python 3 function annotation syntax (PEP 484 notation) in order for it to type check your code and find common bugs.

  • 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.
