Does it support annotating numpy arrays with their dimensions yet? Last time I checked I was incredibly surprised the status quo was basically all numpy arrays are np.ndarray.

I think so:

Which is cool, even strongly typed languages don't usually support that.

There is no example there that show that. I mean something like np.ndarray[1024, 1024, 1024, type=Int] which would mean a 3D array where each dimensions has 1024 elements. Basically all statically typed language support it. Even in C you can do it.
