Should I try this? I, let’s say, code with Ai and am not an engineer. Python related environment stuff makes my head explode (across the 3 computers I use). It’s the main thing my brain just can’t seem to figure out.
Yes. This is currently the best tool to handle python environments and dependencies and it's very popular. If you learn uv, and you really don't need to learn that much other than how to specify a python version and your dependencies, you (hopefully) should be set for a long time.
Well if you want to code with AI you'll have to tell claude/codex constantly that you're using uv and sometimes it'll remember.
Or, you can use a task runner like mise or just, and tell it to use the task runner instead of any particular tool directly. `mise test:unit` is much harder for an agent to get wrong.
