Adding more weight to ease of setup and configurability, the choice came down on flake8. It is easy to integrate, since its also available through pip and let’s you configure which standards you want to omit by simply stating them as a list via the --ignore switch. Moving to ruff appears quite smooth, so future updates may do so.

To increase the reach of piper-whistle and a greater change of someone contributing or reporting any issues, keeping the project in sync with GitHub seems like a reasonable ambition. Let's look at how me way do so with a pipeline target called sync.
