The author, a Professional Python Developer™, challenges the notion that the Python ecosystem is “hot garbage” and opts for using pipx and pyenv as essential tools. They explore Rye, a potential Python project management tool inspired by Cargo, with the ability to simplify development processes like dependency management and virtual environments. Despite initial success with simpler projects, they encounter limitations with Rye when working on a Django project due to the inability to handle C extensions. The author questions Rye’s reliance on static Python builds and suggests improvements for a more user-friendly experience, expressing mixed feelings about its current state while acknowledging its potential for future development.
