yeah, all that setup sucks even after being writing python for years.
Nowadays I've been running every project with
uv
and it's a much better and faster experience, usually in 3 steps: 1. initialize, 2. add dependencies, 3. run project:Then in future runs (as long as you have the pyproject.toml), you can just do
uv run main.py
(shorthand touv run python main.py
), even when there's no venv created. No more activating virtual envs. No more long interpreter installations. No more accidentally messing with system's packages or the PATH variable. With theuv.lock
that's also a lot more reliable to reproduce thanrequirements.txt
and similar.
