> Yeah, but pip and venv don’t leave me impressed, so please elaborate why those are better. Maybe you misspoke, but whether you are left impressed or not is your opinion. What is factual is that these tools are the ecosystem's default tools for their jobs, and have been for a long time. I have relied on them operating multiple production codebases over the course of a decade. I think you need to elaborate on what about that doesn't suit your needs rather than that they don't impress you for some vague, unspecified and potentially arbitrary reason. To answer your question, why do they impress me? They get out of my way, they work, and they don't require me to do anything but have a system version of Python installed. With them, I get reasonably sane package management and environment isolation without headaches. That's enough for me.
