For bigger projects, anything with MANDATORY types is a must for me. Optional, not compiler checked hinting doesn’t cut it.
Not that i hate the language, but I do hate the tooling around it. I don’t think I’ve ever had a pleasant experience with setting up a Python project. And all the data stuff is just wrappers for code in other languages, making the packaging story even uglier, even harder.
You’re right now to compromise on this, but you can give yourself mandatory types in Python, using MyPy, if that’s your only issue with it.*
Because you don’t need elegant subprocess handling, intuitive reliable logging, and don’t mind needing a to autonate a linter to check for whitesoace bullshit.*
**Python is my favorite language, actually. Really.
