If you use VSCode and Pylance (Microsoft python language server) you don’t need to setup Mypy, you can enable type checking in user settings and it will use its own engine for type analysis. You have two modes, basic and strict. I would recommend to try out if you can, the experience is quite good. I personally find “strict” too strict for the current state of python, but “basic” is already very helpful. The developer experience is still subpar when compared to Typescript but it’s improving fast (but I mean, typescript with VSCode has one of the best developer experience I’ve ever seen).
