# mypy-boto3-freetier — Type annotations for boto3 FreeTier 1.43.0 service generated with mypy-boto3-builder 8.12.0

License: permissive · Maintenance: active · Downloads: 242.8K/mo

## What it is and what it does

This package provides pre-generated type stubs for boto3's FreeTier service, enabling static type checking and IDE autocompletion in editors like VSCode, PyCharm, Emacs, and Sublime Text, as well as with mypy and pyright. It was generated with mypy-boto3-builder 8.12.0 and is compatible with boto3 FreeTier 1.43.0.

The stubs include type annotations for FreeTierClient, paginators, and type definitions, allowing developers to catch type errors at development time and get code completion without writing explicit type annotations. The package is designed as a stub-only distribution and requires only typing-extensions as a runtime dependency, making it lightweight to install.

Use it for:

- Enable IDE autocompletion and type checking when writing boto3 FreeTier client code in VSCode with Pylance.
- Run mypy or pyright type checking on a codebase that uses boto3 FreeTier without runtime overhead.
- Get paginator type hints for FreeTier operations like GetFreeTierUsage and ListAccountActivities.
- Catch FreeTier API usage errors during development before deployment.

## Worth the install?

AI-flagged interpretation of the facts above — verify before relying.

Provides type annotations and IDE autocompletion support for boto3's FreeTier service, enabling static type checking with mypy, pyright, and compatible editors.

Yes. This is a lightweight, actively maintained stub package with no vulnerabilities, permissive licensing, and low install friction. Install it if you use boto3's FreeTier service and want static type checking or IDE autocompletion; it adds negligible overhead and integrates seamlessly with standard Python tooling.

## Install

pip install mypy-boto3-freetier
uv add mypy-boto3-freetier
poetry add mypy-boto3-freetier

## Installing mypy-boto3-freetier

Before you install: Low friction install with a single lightweight runtime dependency (typing-extensions). The package is actively maintained with recent releases and no known vulnerabilities.

License in practice: MIT license permits unrestricted use, modification, and distribution with minimal restrictions—suitable for both open-source and proprietary projects.

Quickstart:

pip install mypy-boto3-freetier

from boto3.session import Session
from mypy_boto3_freetier import FreeTierClient

client: FreeTierClient = Session().client("freetier")
# Type checking and IDE autocompletion now work

Requires Python 3.9 or later; boto3 must be installed separately as a peer dependency.

Verify before relying:

- Whether the package works correctly with boto3 versions other than 1.43.0 or if it requires exact version matching.
- Performance impact in PyCharm compared to boto3-stubs-lite, given the documented Literal overload performance issue.
