Yes. we switched from devcontainers to uv and the workflow is now much simpler and faster.
replyPoetry?
replyAnd pipenv, or just literally manually creating a venv. Uv didn't invent that, it's winning on speed mainly, and then capitalising on starting with a base that includes multiple general improvements in the Python ecosystem.
replyuv also installs the python version your project needs which is a huge pain in the ass if you use some old Linux distro with outdated python.
replyYup, I ended up learning docker because Python packaging was such a dumpster fire.
replyI'll never forget the day I discovered that pip didn't do any dependency resolution. You had one job, and yet...
Until uv, I used docker to run python projects locally. Got so fed up with venvs and versions and slowness and lack of wheels and spending so much time mucking around with it when cloning or updating a repo.
replyUv hasn't fixed all issues, but made it far less painful.
