I have doubts about type-ruby.github.io/, but I do think their approach fundamentally makes sense (and has kind of proven this). The slow adoption of Sorbet and RBS means that either there’s not enough demand or the existing solutions are not appealing enough.

I don’t really think that needs static typing (I think they go against its spirit in a way), but I know that many people would disagree, so it’s good to have options.
