Poetry is a great build system. And in 2023, I believe, no one should use the pip for a private Python codebase. Getting it right inside Docker is a different issue, however. Consider a simple Flask-based web server as an example Bash 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 # Install poetry $ pip3 install poetry==1....

I skipped it this time.
