| We do a lot more than that, e.g. how to cache distributions is not defined anywhere within PEPs (and should not be, since it’s a purely internal tool decision). But yes, it helps that uv implements the PEP for detached metadata, particularly during resolution. |

| ▲ | tingletech 17 hours ago | parent [-] | | Don't get me wrong, I love `uv` -- I mean as far as being "the backbone of any modern Python library" -- shouldn't any modern python library work with any packing system that follows the PEPs? | | |
| ▲ | woodruffw 13 hours ago | parent [-] | | It depends on what you mean. The PEPs are essentially a behavioral core, and each tool (build backend, etc.) adds on top of that core. If you’re installing a package, any installer should work; if you’re developing a package, you may be subject to implementation details from your development tool of choice. |
