Definition
AI-generated

uv is a fast Python package and project manager from Astral—think pip/virtualenv/pip-tools-style workflows with aggressive performance and lockfile-friendly installs; it is increasingly offered alongside conda for reproducible scientific stacks where a pure-Python toolchain suffices.

Why it matters in GWAS

New tooling repos may ship pyproject.toml plus uv lockfiles instead of only conda YAML; methods readers should recognize install instructions and CI snippets that pin versions via uv for bit-for-bit notebook or script reruns.

Example usage

"The benchmark harness README uses uv sync to recreate the exact dependency tree before running association timings."

Related-term network

Click any node to open that term page.

Node order. The current term is first. Next come every page linked from Related terms, in the same top-to-bottom order as that list. Then new terms appear in two-hop layers: for each of those direct neighbors (in that same order), their related terms are appended if not already listed. A third pass does the same for two-hop nodes. The walk stops when a fixed maximum number of nodes is reached.
