uv is a new, fast Python packaging tool. (I believe it is pronounced as written, “uhv”, rather than spelt out like “you-vee”. This saves a syllable, fitting the tool’s ethos of speed.)

AdamJ's platform  covers topics related to software development, technology trends, and coding tutorials. Through articles, tutorials, and personal anecdotes, AdamJ offers insights into programming languages, development frameworks, and best practices in software engineering. Readers can learn about software design principles, development methodologies, and emerging technologies to enhance their coding skills and build high-quality software applications.

uv is a new, speedy Python packaging tool that now manages both Python versions and Python-powered tools. The author switched to uv for Python and tool management, replacing Mise, pipx, and Pip, to streamline their development workflow. They use Ansible to automate the setup, including installing and upgrading Python versions and tools, and cleaning up old cache entries. The post provides specific Ansible tasks for these operations.

Python: my new uv setup for development

<p>Python doesn’t need another package to muddy the waters and make it even more difficult to install packages.  Pip works great and has been around forever.</p>


<p>a bit weird to me that author uses uv within flake8 and black but not with ruff</p>
