> We inherited a py2.7 codebase, written by one dev. It uses a library written also by that dev. We had absolutely no idea what worked how. Sure, looking at the code gave us a very rough big picture, but adding typing helps with the details.
I see how this could be helpful for legacy codebase - add typings, run mypy and see if it breaks. Good point - thanks.
How many lines of code that inherited codebase had btw?
Quite small in LOCs less than 10K. (A horribly non-idiomatic custom ETL lib, and a big ball of MVC stuff using pyramid and sqlalchemy/zope.transaction.)
