Platform Considerations

• Rust-Powered Performance (uvx 2.0): Starting from version 2.0, uvx leverages Rust for improved performance and compatibility with uv.
• Prebuilt Binaries: Currently, prebuilt binaries are available for x86_64 (amd64) and aarch64 (ARM64) on Linux.
• Other Platforms: If you're on a different platform, you can still use uvx 1.x, which is written in pure Python. Find it at robinvandernoord/uvx.
• Alternatively, you can Compile for Your Platform:
  • Install the Rust toolchain:

    curl https://sh.rustup.rs -sSf | sh
    

  • Clone the uvx2 repo and navigate to it:

    git clone https://github.com/robinvandernoord/uvx2.git
    cd uvx2
    

  • Set up a virtual environment (choose Python or uv):

    python -m venv venv  # or `uv venv venv --seed`
    source venv/bin/activate
    

  • Install Maturin (Python with Rust package builder):

    pip install maturin  # or `uv pip install maturin`
    

  • Compile and install the uvx binary:

    maturin develop
    

  • Now you can use uvx:

    ./venv/bin/uvx
    

For additional details on building and distribution, refer to maturin documentation.
