How to Write Perfect Python Command-line Interfaces
Do we really have to skip every built in feature and write just another thing doing exactly the same? This happens in Javascript language for past several year and it became such a massive mess. Whole language. It's amost impossible to find a tiny library with 0 dependency just because people are to lazy to learn how to use native stuff. People should go for native because it saves dependency hell, it's stable, well tested and more likely to be maintained in future more than a library from Github with a few stars. It's also a standard so once someone else would like to contribute he doesn't have to go thru dependency docs and rather start working. We should learn from mistakes we already made.

The most obvious ones are the builtin Python types such as str, int, float but Click also provides additional types: Path, File and more.
