While I appreciate UV for its clean, per-project virtual environments, it's still convenient at times to have long-lived, general-purpose conda style environments that you can activate from anywhere that aren't tied to an organized project, for general purpose hacking. Since I’ve completely switched from conda to UV, I created this companion utility to replicate conda-like workflows when needed—giving me the best of both worlds.
My company has blocked all access to any Anaconda websites from our managed laptops/systems, so I can't access that URL. The Anaconda block was the event that triggered the migration to UV. I'm loving UV, so no interest in using anything from the Anaconda ecosystem again, I just wanted the conda-style centralized environment management as an option, which resulted in the creation of this (UVE).
