When writing scripts or developing with Python, do you often find yourself frustrated with managing dependencies and virtual environments?

To be honest, when I first started working with Python, I felt the same way. Installing libraries, switching Python versions, and before you know it, the global environment gets messed up.

Recently, I discovered a tool called uv. It’s not only high-performing and PEP-compliant, but it also has a hidden feature that lets us configure environments and dependencies with just one command. It's truly a game-changer.

So, what exactly is uv?

uv is a Python package and project management tool written in Rust. It can be considered an "all-in-one replacement" for tools like pip, pip-tools, pipx, poetry, pyenv, and more.
