And it isn't even written in Python!
spoiler alert: Python isnβt written in Python
It's ~~turtles~~ GCC all the way down.
spoiler alert: Python isn't written in fortran, cobol, pascal, assembly, VBA, Java, javascript, or Rust. uv is written in Rust. spoiler alert: Don't have to be a C coder to use Python
Literally it's best feature, because then you can download a binary and guarantee that with that binary, you have a working python virtualenv on every platform UV supports.
This page said it's written in Rust. Is this the same UV?
yes
That means it can't be maintained by the community it's serving. For those skilled in both Rust and Python can understand why it would appear as the best thing since sliced bread.
What about for those not skilled in Rust? Should we also learn 15 other coding languages while we are at it?
wreck is written in Python and manages dependencies. via hierarchy of requirements files, not TOML. It's venv aware. For Python package authors.
