It's not rivaling Go anytime soon but there have been leaps and bounds.

E.g.

  uv init --script foo.py
  uv add --script foo.py httpx 
  cat foo.py
  ...
  dependencies = ['httpx']
  ...

Then on another machine:

  uv run foo.py
  # creates a virtual env, reads foo.py to see httpx is a dependency, installs in the ephemeral venv then runs the script

The above is from memory typed on a phone so maybe some minor syntax issues but the point i tried to make was we can kinda emulate the convenience of statically compiled binaries a-la Go these days
