For context, the reason I ask is that I am developing some Ruby gems, and considering whether it's worth adding .rbs files.

In the Python libraries I maintain, types are useful to anyone who installs the default Python VS Code plugin, because it gives them intellisense (but doesn't give them red squiggly lines for type errors) even if they do nothing to set up types or a typechecker.

Is that or will that be the case for Ruby/Steep?




Yes! Totally one of the use cases.

We plan to do that at some point for the Ruby Datadog tracer public API, so that users can have intellisense and don't need to jump to the docs.
