Python code linter in Databricks notebook

Is it possible to get syntax linting in a DB notebook? Say with flake8, like I do in VS code?

Hi @Debayan Mukherjee, I don't see anything about linting in Python in that link?

No linting in a DB notebook available for now.

The Notebook is currently in the process of adopting Monaco as the underlying code editor which will offer an improved code authoring experience for notebook cells.

Some of the Monaco editor features enabled in the notebook include :

Completions as you type
Object inspection on mouse hover
Code folding
Multi-cursor support
Column (box) selection
Bracket-matching
Side-by-side diffs in revision history
Improved find-and-replace
Better accessibility support

Need to wait for linting.
