Poetry is a new tool to help you manage your Python projects. It is both a dependency management tool and a packaging tool. Most of the reasons why I started this are detailed in the README (along with why I don’t want to use Pipenv) here: https://github.com/sdispater/poetry#why https://github.com/sdispater/poetry#why, but if you want to know the advantages of Poetry compared to existing tools, here are a few: - Exhaustive dependency resolver - Intuitive CLI (See https://poetry.eustace.io/docs/cli/ https://poetry.eustace.io/docs/cli/) - Emphasis on semantic versioning and constraint specification so that wildcard dependencies (`*`) will be considered bad practice - Support for dependencies caret, tilde, wildcard, inequality and multiple requirements. - Only one file: the standardised pyproject.toml which aims at being readable and clear. - Mandatory compatible python versions specification. Also, Poetry is Python 3.6+ only but can manage Python 2 projects without any problem. And finally, Poetry is not completely stable yet so internally things can change but the CLI and commands are pretty much stable so backwards-incompatible changes should not happen too often.
