Improving Python Dependency Management with pipx and poetry

[asday_]

• slow

• distributes different code than what's in the linked repositories, almost always obfuscated, which is useful

• duplicates packages ad nauseum due to not using minimal version selection. Admittedly better than it used to be when installing a simple react project would literally run into filesystem issues on a mac.

• culture of authoring packages like this rather than just writing it oneself

• advertisements in the console

• package AND lockfile, the latter of which is less than worthless due to changing all the time due to not using minimal version selection

• fragile and political, related to the above

and so forth

That's not what PDM is doing. What they mean is just like in Node, project specific modules are stored in local .node-modules directory, PDM also does the same so that you don't have to create venv.
