+Typing
+======
+
+Type checking support was introduced in version 4.0. While most of the library is
+now typed, further type annotations may be added throughout the 4.x release cycle.
+To improve them, we may introduce changes to the typing that do not affect
+runtime behavior, but may surface new or different errors with type checkers.
+
+.. role:: python(code)
+    :language: python
+
+.. note::
+    All undocumented type aliases coming from ``falcon._typing`` are considered
+    private to the framework itself, and not meant for annotating applications
+    using Falcon. To that end, it is advisable to only use classes from the
+    public interface, and public aliases from :mod:`falcon.typing`, e.g.:
+
+    .. code-block:: python
+
+        class MyResource:
+            def on_get(self, req: falcon.Request, resp: falcon.Response) -> None:
+                resp.media = {'message': 'Hello, World!'}
+
+    If you still decide to reuse the private aliases anyway, they should
+    preferably be imported inside :python:`if TYPE_CHECKING:` blocks in order
+    to avoid possible runtime errors after an update.
+    Also, make sure to :ref:`let us know <chat>` which essential aliases are
+    missing from the public interface!
+
+
+Known Limitations
+-----------------
+
+Falcon's emphasis on flexibility and performance presents certain
+challenges when it comes to adding type annotations to the existing code base.
+One notable limitation involves using custom :class:`~falcon.Request` and/or
+:class:`~falcon.Response` types in callbacks that are passed back
+to the framework, such as when adding an
+:meth:`error handler <falcon.App.add_error_handler>`.
+
+For instance, the following application might unexpectedly not pass type
+checking:
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+    from typing import Any
+
+    from falcon import App, HTTPInternalServerError, Request, Response
+
+
+    class MyRequest(Request):
+        ...
+
+
+    def handle_os_error(req: MyRequest, resp: Response, ex: Exception,
+                        params: dict[str, Any]) -> None:
+        raise HTTPInternalServerError(title='OS error!') from ex
+
+
+    app = App(request_type=MyRequest)
+    app.add_error_handler(OSError, handle_os_error)
+
+(Please also see the following GitHub issue:
+`#2372 <https://github.com/falconry/falcon/issues/2372>`__.)
+
+.. important::
+    This is only a typing limitation that has no effect outside of type
+    checking -- the above ``app`` will run just fine!
