An extremely fast Python package installer and resolver, written in Rust. Designed as a drop-in
|
|
replacement for common `pip` and `pip-tools` workflows.

<i>Installing the Trio dependencies with a warm cache.</i>

|
## Highlights
|
|
|
|
- ⚖️ Drop-in replacement for common `pip`, `pip-tools`, and `virtualenv` commands.
|
|
- ⚡️ [10-100x faster](https://github.com/astral-sh/uv/blob/main/BENCHMARKS.md) than `pip`
|
|
and `pip-tools` (`pip-compile` and `pip-sync`).
|
|
- 💾 Disk-space efficient, with a global cache for dependency deduplication.
|
|
- 🐍 Installable via `curl`, `pip`, `pipx`, etc. uv is a static binary that can be installed
|
|
without Rust or Python.
|
|
- 🧪 Tested at-scale against the top 10,000 PyPI packages.
|
|
- 🖥️ Support for macOS, Linux, and Windows.
|
|
- 🧰 Advanced features such as dependency version overrides, multi-platform resolutions, reproducible resolutions,
|
|
alternative resolution strategies, and more.
|
|
- ⁉️ Best-in-class error messages with a conflict-tracking resolver.
|
|
- 🤝 Support for a wide range of advanced `pip` features, including editable installs, Git
|
|
dependencies, direct URL dependencies, local dependencies, constraints, source distributions,
|
|
HTML and JSON indexes, and more.
|
|
|
|
uv is backed by [Astral](https://astral.sh), the creators of [Ruff](https://github.com/astral-sh/ruff).
|
