I have no idea what you're talking about. Typer adds a nice type annotation based interface which is both nice to use and means all your arguments are statically typed checked.

I don't use async Python normally (IMO it's one of those "if you need this you shouldn't be using Python" features).

    Great! The Ludwicks have been waiting for a champion of blocking I/O to emerge. Where world+dog-FizzyOrange preference lies is 100% clear and has been since before we were born. Even us lowly Python devs prefer fast over idle CPUs.

    This is why initially liked fastapi. It says fast right there in the name. It's curiously not named, abandonwareapi.

    Typer adds a maintenance burden that, as SQLModel 70+ PRs attest, the author does not have time for. No other details are necessary to know. Abandonware is really just a time sink hurting everyone pulled in.

    I'm not unreasonable. Fix the situation with SQLModel and my attitude will flip from critic --> supporter. And then will appreciate and look forward to posts about: fastapi, SQLModel, and Typer. Past grievances will be memory holed.

    Are you.. ok? I think maybe you should see a psychiatrist.

    Projection huh? I expect this in a political, not a python community. Vet psyche techniques somewhere else.

    Instead of attacking the messenger, why not follow advice and just do the maintenance work?

    I'm warning others away from an author that has neglected to do package maintenance, but then continues to do marketing?

    In any other market, this is the pattern of a con artist. Gaslighting is also expected from a con artist.
