Python package manager uv is now available for builds with zero configuration
By Steven Van ·
Vercel's Python builds now default to the Rust-based uv package manager, cutting install times 30-65% with no config changes.
uv, a Python package manager written in Rust, is now the default during the install step for all Python builds on Vercel. Vercel says the switch makes builds 30-65% faster.
Dependency support also widens: alongside requirements.txt and Pipfile, projects can now declare dependencies with a uv.lock or pyproject.toml file. The change applies automatically, with no configuration needed.
