I don't deny that, what I am (and the article is) saying is that we were sold on Pipenv being "the officially recommended Python packaging tool from Python.org".
And PyPA didn't refute it, and Heroku didn't refute it, so the community bought it.
Yes, introducing a Lockfile is huge, and it was massively needed, and thats why when we were told "heres the official way to do it", we got excited. Then we got daily breaking updates, rude issue close messages, and a giant backtrack of "its free and still under development, why do you expect so much from us?"
- emptysea 8y agoAnother reason Heroku didn't refute Pipenv is that Pipenv's creator leads Python related things at Heroku.
