python's poetry has poetry.lock I think it's slowly becoming semi-standard. But still slowly and still not fully ready(bugs). Also its odd that pyproject.toml (not poetry.toml which is the poetry settings for repo) is the dependency definition file and poetry.lock is the lock file for pip file I usually make a requirements-to-freeze.txt, make a fresh virtualenv, install requirements-to-freeze.txt and then pip freeze > requirements.txt poetry does this automatically

I sort of get this but its still a bit odd. especially since I have a small poetry.toml as well. > I use poetry every day and so far it's been pretty great. I like poetry, it works a lot better for me then pipenv did(to be fair that was a few years ago). But I do seem to have to delete lock file to update it and sometimes poetry add/install breaks oddly(or at least with awkward error messages). Also sometimes it interacts with venvs in odd ways. python really needs to ship with it

The pyproject.toml is telling you what should work in terms of a range of package versions and the poetry.lock is telling you what my environment is in terms of exactly what is installed. You don't need the lock file, but without it there is no guarantee of what it will install so it may not be completely compatible.
