Before uv there was poetry, and before poetry there was pipenv, before pipenv there was virtualenv. I wish people would stop portraying Python tooling completely wrong like that. uv is not the first tool to solve most problems in this space. It may be the best performing though and may be the best overall currently.
- dlisboa 12d agoI think you’re underselling it. You’ve listed several projects with many thousand man hours in development. It’s telling that in Python there have been multiple package managers over the years to fix the broken status quo. Typescript/Javascript notwithstanding, in other languages and environments you get the one tool that’s been there for over a decade without competitors. Very few languages have suffered from the same package manager issues as JS/TS and Python.
