Npm is also good enough for most cases, but it hadn't stopped yarn from getting traction. May be Python developers are just more conservative?

- nurettin 5y agoThey are simply uninterested. Poetry and pipenv both give you the opportunity to separate dev dependencies, keep your venv folder separate from the project, add platform specific packages and easily update all package versions. Pipenv will even load the .env file. After reading all this, your python developer will go "well I still don't know what it does that I can't do with venv/pip".
- uranusjr 5y agoYarn got most of its popularity during a time when it was clearly ahead of npm in every way, but saw its share dropped when npm caught up. IMO Poetry came a bit too late; it would have been a tremendous hit in like 2015, but as the timeline be it is the leap forward is simply not enough. (Incidentally I think the same is happening for Yarn v2 as well; very good ideas, but too minor for most users to care.)
