TY

astral.sh8 min read

Summary from the TLDR Dev newsletter

ty is an extremely fast Python type checker and language server. It is designed to be an alternative to tools like mypy, Pyright, and Pylance. The entire ty architecture is built around incrementality, so developers can selectively re-run only the necessary computations when a file is edited or an individual function is modified. ty has a best-in-class diagnostic system that can pull context from multiple files at once to explain what's wrong, why, and how to fix it.
