not a standalone distribution but:

  uvx [email protected]
gets you into the Hy REPL

  echo '(print "hi hn")' > hi.hy
  uvx [email protected] hi.hy
prints "hi hn"

(context: uv can install and manage python versions)

Generally, uv answers the objection that ‘Python sux’ in that it (1) is correct, unlike pip, and (2) is freaky fast.

Except uv doesn’t support conda so there goes many of the niche scientific packages required for many users like me. Someone please prove me wrong because I do love uv when I can use it. I’ve found pixi to be an ok alternative but not nearly as fast.
