It does everything with less surprises and faster. Just try it.

  > Just try it. I don't need to be told to RTFM. I was asking for advice. My attention span is my most valuable commodity, and since I'm not really surprised or slowed down by setuptools, etc., it sounds like uv probably isn't worth investigating. Thanks.

    It probably is. Just try it is the advice.

      That's unhelpful. To answer my own question—and to actually help other people with similar use cases—I read about uv's build process and dependency locking. It does not appear to be able to lock dependencies for build distributions (wheels). https://docs.astral.sh/uv/concepts/projects/build/ https://docs.astral.sh/uv/concepts/projects/build/ https://docs.astral.sh/uv/pip/compile/ https://docs.astral.sh/uv/pip/compile/ However, it does mention that Python supports multiple build systems, which I didn't know, so this hasn't been a complete waste of my time. Thanks!

        If your time is so precious that you complain about wasting it here, I don't know what to tell you, but glad you aren't going back empty handed!
