Not at the moment, but will your grandma run a script? There is an interesting thing you can already do today for larger applications which is to install uv alongside your app. You can make a curl-to-bash thing or similar that first installs uv into a program specific location to then use that to bootstrap your program. Is it a good idea? I don't know, but you can do that.
