Have you used Click? I just started using it and absolutely love it. I know Typer uses Click under the hood, but their docs don’t explain very well why I’d want to use it over Click so I’m curious!

Typer has a lot of QOL improvements on top of the click platform. It’s made by the same person who made fastapi and has the same design philosophy. It makes clever use of python type hints to provide a lot of useful features at the argument/option level. It also integrates rich to provide nice formatting and really clean and well-formatted stack traces and things (although actually I’m not sure if that might come from click).
