Type annotations and formatter

I will look into that, but probably for the reasons stated on Telegram only starting from Thursday the 22nd.

I'm OK with 1. and 2.
With that said, I'm in the process of introducing myself to Python, so I'll be setting up Pylance :)

I'm actually not really happy with pylance. It would require me to use VS Code for development, which I generally dislike. There once was a plugin for Vim for Pylance, but Microsoft killed it. So if you guys totally want to use it I can life with it, but I'm.not happy with it

Pylance (the language server / VSCode extension) uses the Pyright type checker, which is available for Vim. Would that be Ok for you?

At the end of the day it does not matter which tool you use as long as it applies the same conventions as Pyright, which is I think one of the most up-to-date (https://github.com/microsoft/pyright#type-checking-features) type checker for Python.

Any news on Pylance / Pyright?

As for the formatter, I myself am unhappy with autopep8. The standard is good but concretely it really overdoes things and is not always consistent as far as vertical spacing. Perhaps it's a configuration issue. Will keep you posted.
