I recently switched to uv, and I cannot praise it enough. With uv, the Python ecosystem finally feels mature and polished rather than like a collection of brittle hacks. Kudos to the uv developers for creating such an amazing piece of software!

It's the integrated python version management which sold me. Took a huge chunk of complexity out of bootstrapping projects which I was otherwise handling myself.
This is the one thing that took a while for me to get to grips with. I tend to use `asdf` for my python version management, which I want to continue to use since I use it for most other languages. It'd be nice if we could have a shim for `uv` that allows it to play nice with `asdf` (there is an `asdf-uv` but seems to be about installing different versions of `uv` when instead I want to install different versions of p…

As a semi casual user of python that had to battle w/ dependency management recently, can you elaborate on why that would not be a good thing ? I thought about switching our project to uv but could not find the time necessary

uv doesn't solve all this, but it's reduced the amount of ways things can go wrong by a lot. And it being fast means that the feedback-loop is much quicker.
