Introduction

uv is expanding from low-level commands to manage virtual environments and their packages to high-level project management commands and global management of Python installations and command line tools.

See the project documentation for using uv to manage dependencies in a project, similar to poetry.

See the tool documentation for using uv to run tools in ephemeral environments and install tools, similar to pipx.

See the toolchain documentation for using uv to manage Python installations, similar to pyenv.
