However, this would limit the ability of the Gradle ecosystem plugin authors to take advantage of new Java features and improvements.

## Design { #design }

Then I spent some time designing the developer "API" I wanted to have as a user (as a developer using FastAPI).

I tested several ideas in the most popular Python editors: PyCharm, VS Code, Jedi based editors.

By the last [Python Developer Survey](https://www.jetbrains.com/research/python-developers-survey-2018/#development-tools), that covers about 80% of the users.
