It's great that we have simple/clean declarations for NamedTuples an (Data)classes now. But I wonder why they chose two different styles for creating them. This for NamedTuples:
from typing import NamedTuple
class Foo(NamedTuple):
bar: str
baz: int
The short answer is that the only way to do what dataclasses do as a base class is via python metaclasses, and you can only have one metaclass. So this way, you can dataclassify something that inherits from a metaclass.
