But why? Mise does this and more. It can install binaries from github, gitlab, uv, npm, and many more.

Heck, mise has an HTTP backend that can install binaries from any URL. I use this to manage Atlassian CLI, whose official Windows binary is not on winget.

But isn't this built into uv already? Just point the sources table to GitHub. https://docs.astral.sh/uv/concepts/projects/dependencies/#pr...

AFAIK uv installs python packages only. This fetches and runs binaries from Github.

I’m this is not true, uv + wheels you can install binaries
