Hello @benbariteau,

Thanks for your comment. Type checking has been worked on as a separate project here, but it is experimental and currently not prioritized:

https://github.com/boto/botostubs

There are some third party implementations, like vemel/mypy_boto3_builder, that you could take a look at. See these issues for discussion around type checking:

• Generate and provide PEP-484 stub files for type-checking #1055
• boto3 stubs package  #2036
• [consent request] Type annotations for boto3 #2213

Since there are a number of other issues related to this topic, I'm going to close this as a duplicate.
