We’re excited to share that experimental support for Pydantic is now available in Pyrefly! This integration aims to provide a seamless, out-of-the-box experience, allowing you to statically validate your Pydantic code as you type, rather than solely at runtime. No plugins or manual configuration required!
Today we’re thrilled to announce that we have reached Beta status for Pyrefly, our open-source, high-performance tool for Python code navigation and type checking! We first announced Pyrefly back in April 2025, and thanks to incredible community feedback and a ton of work from our team, we’ve hit a significant milestone.
The challenges of managing ever-growing codebases are hardly new. As far back as 1995, Niklaus Wirth, (creator of programming language Pascal) already emphasized the importance of keeping software lean in his essay A Plea for Lean Software. Fast forward to today: many programmers still face the reality that, despite their best coding intentions, as projects grow in size and complexity, so do their codebases. Even when a project scales to millions of lines of code, developers still expect their IDE to be fast, accurate, and efficient. And with increasingly large and interconnected (dare I say, spaghetti?) code, you probably rely on your IDE even more to help you navigate the chaos (ahem I mean complexity).
