uv

# uv

> uv is an extremely fast Python package and project manager, written in Rust.

You can use uv to install Python dependencies, run scripts, manage virtual environments,
build and publish packages, and even install Python itself. uv is capable of replacing
`pip`, `pip-tools`, `pipx`, `poetry`, `pyenv`, `twine`, `virtualenv`, and more.

uv includes both a pip-compatible CLI (prepend `uv` to a pip command, e.g., `uv pip install ruff`)
and a first-class project interface (e.g., `uv add ruff`) complete with lockfiles and
workspace support.
