Description: A talk on Python type hints and static typing using MyPy presented at a Python-Madrid local meetup, with the slides available online.

Just a quick post to remark that this week I gave a talk at [Python-Madrid local meetup](https://www.meetup.com/python-madrid/events/247951179/), and the topic I chose was **Python type hints and static typing using MyPy**.

Although I explained more in detail most slides, I tried to make them so even without listening to me they carry some understandable content. If anybody is interested on reading them, the direct link is [https://slides.kartones.net/027.html](https://slides.kartones.net/027.html) (as usual on my [slides.kartones.net](https://slides.kartones.net/) section).

I wish to repeat the talk again and I even sent it as a proposal for a London Python-related event so fingers crossed :)

**Update**: [This blog post about gradual programming](http://willcrichton.net/notes/gradual-programming/) explains very interestingly my point of why Python type hints are interesting as a "gradual typing". I highly recommend you to read it.
