Add uv

[antusystem]

What is this Python project?

uv is an extremely fast Python package and project manager, it extends beyond a pip alternative, and more into an end-to-end solution for managing command-line tools, single-file scripts, and even Python itself.

Highlights

• A single tool to replace pip, pip-tools, pipx, poetry, pyenv, virtualenv, and more.
• 10-100x faster than pip.
• Installs and manages Python versions.
• Runs and installs Python applications.
• Runs single-file scripts, with support for inline dependency metadata.
• Provides comprehensive project management, with a universal lockfile.
• Includes a pip-compatible interface for a performance boost with a familiar CLI.
• Supports Cargo-style workspaces for scalable projects.
• Disk-space efficient, with a global cache for dependency deduplication.
• Installable without Rust or Python via curl or pip.
• Supports macOS, Linux, and Windows.

What's the difference between this Python project and similar ones?

• The main difference is the speed creating the environments
• The command line interface is clear in every aspect

I have been tracking these project for a while and look really interting, I just tried to install the depencies of a project with this an Python Poetry (my package management tool for years) and it took 20 s with uv against 61 s from Poetry

I just add - I have been using UV in the past few projects, and is compliant with TOML format, while poetry has some custom specifications. Additionally, uv supports inline script specifications metadata , and speed is not the only benefit of the tool.
