not to mention as a group of hopeless pkg manager fangirls, this particular tool is also one we are very excited about! 💗📦
Announcing uv: an extremely fast Python package installer and resolver, written in Rust.
uv is designed as a drop-in alternative to pip, pip-tools, and virtualenv.
With a warm cache, uv installs are near-instant. Here, it's > 75x faster than pip and pip-tools.

Together with partners like
