It's a python linter, from what I've seen.

Implemented in rust, not python, so it's extremely fast. It's orders of magnitude faster than pylint itself.
This would matter more if it did all the things Pylint does, but Ruff still has a ways to go. They're tracking progress in https://github.com/charliermarsh/ruff/issues/970.
Damm that's a lot of cases to cover. I wonder how performant will Ruff be once it reaches feature parity.
How many orders of magnitude?
There's a very clear graph the first thing on ruff's GitHub page, easy to find and research yourself: https://github.com/charliermarsh/ruff Can't miss it if you take time to check out the project.
So 2, maybe 3
Your comment seems skeptical. Practically, It’s a night and day difference if you’ve integrated a linter with your editor. Plus, ruff is able to fix as well as lint.
Didn't mean it that way, something being 100+ times slower is a LOT. And I care a lot about tool speed. I just didn't really think I needed to be shamed for asking a question they had a ready answer for.
