So, so hyped that this release is finally out!
It was a huge amount of effort to get this over the line. There's still so much more to do but we're so excited for more folks to try it out and tell us what you think 😃
Announcing the Beta release of ty: an extremely fast type checker and language server for Python, written in Rust.
We now use ty exclusively in our own projects and are ready to recommend it to motivated users.
10x, 50x, even 100x faster than existing type checkers and LSPs.
There's still a long way to go on this project, but I'm hugely excited about where we're going with this. Let's make Python typing even more awesome than it already is!
Today, we’re announcing the preview release of ty, an extremely fast type checker and language server for Python, written in Rust.
In early testing, it's 10x, 50x, even 100x faster than existing type checkers. (We've seen >600x speed-ups over Mypy in some real-world projects.)
🪐 We're continuing to grow the Astral team 🪐
Ruff and uv are... everywhere. We need help keeping up with that growth -- and building out entirely new tools too.
Full-time, remote (UTC-7 to UTC+1), open source.
Let's build the future of Python tooling :)
The test framework @carljm wrote for our (work-in-progress!) type checker at @astral_sh allows us to write "literate test suites" that double as documentation and look beautiful when rendered. I landed this "test suite" today: github.com/astral-sh/ruff…
