+Relevant PEPs
+=============
+
+Since the initial introduction of type hints in :pep:`484` and :pep:`483`, a
+number of PEPs have modified and enhanced Python's framework for type
+annotations. These include:
+
+* :pep:`526`: Syntax for Variable Annotations
+     *Introducing* syntax for annotating variables outside of function
+     definitions, and :data:`ClassVar`
+* :pep:`544`: Protocols: Structural subtyping (static duck typing)
+     *Introducing* :class:`Protocol` and the
+     :func:`@runtime_checkable<runtime_checkable>` decorator
+* :pep:`585`: Type Hinting Generics In Standard Collections
+     *Introducing* the ability to use builtin collections and ABCs as
+     :term:`generic types<generic type>`
+* :pep:`586`: Literal Types
+     *Introducing* :data:`Literal`
+* :pep:`589`: TypedDict: Type Hints for Dictionaries with a Fixed Set of Keys
+     *Introducing* :class:`TypedDict`
+* :pep:`591`: Adding a final qualifier to typing
+     *Introducing* :data:`Final` and the :func:`@final<final>` decorator
+* :pep:`593`: Flexible function and variable annotations
+     *Introducing* :data:`Annotated`
+* :pep:`604`: Allow writing union types as ``X | Y``
+     *Introducing* :data:`types.UnionType` and the ability to use
+     the binary-or operator ``|`` as syntactic sugar for a union of types
+* :pep:`612`: Parameter Specification Variables
+     *Introducing* :class:`ParamSpec` and :data:`Concatenate`
+* :pep:`613`: Explicit Type Aliases
+     *Introducing* :data:`TypeAlias`
+* :pep:`647`: User-Defined Type Guards
+     *Introducing* :data:`TypeGuard`
