10-100x faster linter and formatter that unifies Flake8, Black, isort, and pyupgrade rules in a single configuration.
Why it matters10-100x faster linter and formatter that unifies Flake8, Black, isort, and pyupgrade rules in a single configuration.
When not to use itWhen a project depends on plugin ecosystems (e.g. Flake8 plugins) that have no Ruff equivalent yet.
Risk noteDrop-in Black compatibility; rare syntax-parsing differences surface on unusual code bases.

The AI-era grade
AI familiarity: high
Mainstream models reliably produce current-API code for this project. Normal code review still applies.
This grade is the maintainer’s dated judgment about mainstream model training data — not a benchmark result. Re-graded on major releases. The grading rules live in the repository’s curation policy.
