Title: Pants 2.0.0 released - Concurrently cache and orchestrate modern Python builds
We're launching Pants 2.0 today, a build tool to orchestrate the tools used for a modern Python codebase, like Black, Pytest, Flake8, Protobufs, and setuptools. Pants will run these tools concurrently, and brings fine-grained caching with minimal boilerplate, including as your codebase scales up in size.
We're also excited that the Plugin API leverages Python 3 features to pull everything off: type hints, async functions, and dataclasses. We wrote the new execution engine in Rust for performance, but plugins are written in typed Python 3 for ease of use.hundreds-father-404

10/27/2020, 8:17 PMif there isn’t a length limit, i think that the “caching and concurrency” bits from the HN post are relevant here too

10/27/2020, 8:17 PMthe amount of native code in Pants is a differentiator compared to many python tools
