Can uv replace Poetry or pip-tools?

Yes, uv offers equivalent functionality to Poetry and pip-tools, including lockfile support and dependency synchronization, while remaining lighter and significantly faster.

Does uv require Python to be installed first?

No, uv is a standalone binary written in Rust. It can manage the installation of various Python versions itself, making it an excellent tool for bootstrapping new environments.

How does this skill help with Docker builds?

It provides optimized multi-stage Docker patterns that use uv to sync dependencies efficiently, resulting in smaller images and drastically faster build speeds compared to standard pip installs.

What is uv and why should I use it over pip?

uv is a Rust-based Python package manager that is 10-100x faster than pip. It provides a unified interface for installing Python, managing environments, and resolving dependencies with superior speed and reliability.
