On a related note (but with Python), I recently tried uv instead of pip and was impressed by both its speed and dependency resolution. I was attempting to upgrade an internal project from Python 3.9, and pip was frustratingly slow, sometimes it would just get stuck with no output and no errors...
There’s growing consensus that with uv python tooling finally became good enough in terms of both speed and functionality, no need to choose one or the other (like, poetry had functionality but was extra slow).
