I think better developer tools tend to compound over time, they raise expectations and push the whole ecosystem forward.
IMO, uv is quickly becoming one of the best reasons to start a new project in Python. It’s fast, and brings a level of polish and performance that makes Python feel modern again.
- lawn 11mo agoIndeed. It's interesting to compare the expectations of a new programming language today to just a decade ago for instance.
- oblio 11mo agoThe funky thing is that people will fork uv and make package managers for other programming languages from it. Or at least from parts of it. Win win.
- ModernMech 11mo agoI think uv is one of the best examples of why not to start a new project in Python. I mean, depending on the project really, Python has its place. But if your project is anything like uv, uv proves you can't actually write an app like uv in Python. So for as great as uv is, its proximity to Python is a constant reminder of its shortcomings.

- ModernMech 11mo agoI had said: "I mean, depending on the project really, Python has its place." My point is if you put an airplane next to a car factory, it's very clear you can't build the airplane in the car factory.
