The Python package manager uv is looking extremely promising (and quite likely to supersede Poetry and Pipenv), so we should add support for it (after we add Poetry support, and once uv's project management/sync features have stabilised):

astral-sh/uv#6834 has just merged (not yet released, but will be soon), which adds support for UV_PROJECT_ENVIRONMENT to uv sync, allowing control of the venv ___location - which was one of the blockers I'd noticed for uv support so far.

There's also the matter of uv still having very frequent releases and occasional breaking changes/regressions (not surprising given that the uv sync feature is still only 2 weeks old) - we'll need to decide at which point it's stable enough that we won't be breaking users of the CNB every time we update it.

Adding support for uv will also increase the priority for doing #271, since uv defaults to storing venvs inside the project directory (unlike Poetry or Pipenv), which will mean that users are much more likely to accidentally either (a) git commit their local venv to the repo (which means it will be included for git push heroku main etc), (b) include the venv in a locally run pack build due to not knowing about project.toml's exclude.
