The pyproject.toml spec is ten years old. Python 3 is almost twenty years old. The community standard moved within the last five years. Tox is only necessary if you want to validate across specific versions so it can be replaced by tools like Poetry. If you’ve got GitHub workflows that’s the standard anyway so you should be running something like act locally. Static typing redundancy is a waste of compute.
If you’re going to be an asshole, make sure you can back everything up. You can’t so I’d recommend taking a breath and going outside.
Edit: I looked through your GitHub and even though your profile name is “msftcangoblowm” you don’t seem to use
.yamlbut instead the YAML extension Windows devs use.Thank you for introducing me to act. First time seeing it.
