Same here. 20 years on python and I've never done anything more than clone a repo, venv and pip install -r requirements. And then cd && python -m to run the source code, maybe set PYTHONPATH in some cases.

I don't think I've even written a setup.py .

Obviously there's a whole world of development and deployment where these things are relevant, but there's also a massive world where nobody even understands what they are missing.

My current gig has a 9 year python repo, 3526 .py files over 228 megabytes, 13 (current) developers. It's all managed with virtuanenv/pip install. So - even larger projects seem to get by okay - would love to read something on Poetry that just says, "Here is why it's a lot better than virtualenv/pip"
