I'm curious what you switched from that is giving you FOMO right now. If you've mostly worked in strongly-typed languages, you simply can't get the same kind of IDE experience with something like Python. The tools have come a long way and are at least decent now, but will never be as sharp as they will be for languages like C# or Java.


Compared to the TypeScript experience in the same editor, the Python experience is terrible. A little bit of that can be attributed to Python's type system being less powerful than TypeScript, but most of it is not. Things like auto-imports, deep autocomplete, instant feedback on the errors it's able to detect, etc should be perfectly doable.
