Python is one of the most successful programming languages out there, with it recently overtaking Javascript as the most popular language on GitHub, according to the latest GitHub Octoverse report. The report emphasises the popularity of the language in the growing fields of AI, data science and scientific computing - fields where speedy experimentation and iteration are critical, and where developers are coming from a broad range of STEM backgrounds, not necessarily computer science. But as the Python community expands and projects grow from experiments to production systems, that same flexibility can become a liability.

That’s why today we’re going to talk about typed Python - what it is, why it’s become important for Python developers today, and how to get started using it to write higher quality, more reliable code.
