Show HN: Pyra – a Python toolchain experiment inspired by uv and Bun

I’ve been working on Pyra for the past few months and wanted to start sharing it in public. Right now it’s focused on the core package/project management workflow: Python installs, init, add/remove, lockfiles, env sync, and running commands in the managed env. The bigger thing I’m exploring is whether Python could eventually support a more cohesive toolchain story overall, more in the direction of Bun: not just packaging, but maybe over time testing, tasks, notebooks, and other common workflow tools feeling like one system instead of a bunch of separate pieces. It’s still early, and I’m definitely not claiming it’s as mature as uv. I’m mostly sharing it now because I want honest feedback on whether the direction feels interesting or misguided.
