should we use ruff?

[marcieltorres]

Hello everyone,

Nowadays I'm using ruff for my projects and it's been amazing.

Some projects:
https://github.com/marcieltorres/safe-chat-slack-bot (it's a bot using Slack Bolt :) )
https://github.com/marcieltorres/python-boilerplate-project

So, what do you think about we add ruff on this template?

Hey @marcieltorres 👋 Thanks for this suggestion! ruff seems like a really cool tool and we're interested in trying it on the Python templates. I totally believe that it's amazing.

Right now we might hold off on the replacement until the pycodestyle rules are implemented so certain lints are caught by ruff check - currently tracking this in astral-sh/ruff#2402 - but I think this'll be a great enhancement after that!

Talked with @WilliamBergamin about this too and great points were raised about consolidating the current .flake8 rules into the pyproject.toml which is always exciting! 🎉

In my own projects I do combine several linters (in unit tests).
I do run ruff (with --preview flag) as the first because it is the fastest one. After that all the others (pycodestyle, pylint, codespell) are in the line. See my code.
