| Best use | Best for an individual Python developer or small team that wants consistent linting, import organization, and formatting locally, in editors, and in CI. It adds reviewable rules, safe-by-default fixes, and a pinnable version. It does not replace tests, type checking, or business-logic review, and migration from Black or Flake8 should be tested on a branch. | For documentation authors and small teams checking references locally or in CI. Start with a specific file and interpret findings; it does not establish complete site or login functionality. | Best for a developer or small team maintaining a product or library guide and comfortable with files and Git. It organizes scattered instructions into pages with clear locale and version choices. It does not write or translate your content, and may be excessive for a single page or a team needing direct collaborative editing. |
