    Yeah, not trying to dunk on other commenter, but these don’t sound like complaints I experience with Python at all. Setting up the environment is a breeze with venv, package installation couldn’t be easier with basic pip, and I really like having a diverse ecosystem of multiple (often high quality) approaches to solving similar problems.

        Yeah I’ve been hearing about it and meaning to dive in. Been learning some infra stuff lately though.

        Any particularly strong selling points you want to convey?

          It uses the same philosophy of cargo.toml files in Rust projects, where you have all dependencies and versions listed. It’s quite fast, and you can use it to install python cli tools without change your base installation. It’s the best of venv and pipx and more, IMHO.
