## The Hook

uv makes Python packaging not terrible for the first time.

## What's Good

Installation is 10-100x faster than pip. The resolver handles complex dependency trees without the random failures. Virtual environment management is built-in. Compatible with requirements.txt and pyproject.toml.

## The Catch

Relatively new, so edge cases exist. Some older packages with unusual build systems may have issues.

## Verdict

Finally, Python packaging that does not waste your time.
