This updates the Python contributor docs to prefer
uvfor local environment initialization and day-to-day command execution, while keeping the documentedMakefiletargets unchanged.I intentionally did not migrate CI in this PR. We have already tried broader
uvrollouts in #4221 and are still carrying a larger CI refactor in #5210; the current Python workflows still have materially different dependency shapes across lint, wheel-install test, benchmark, and optional Torch / TensorFlow / Ray paths, so I don't see a single environment definition we can switch to safely without a dedicated CI pass.This keeps the local guidance moving in the right direction without pretending the CI environment has already been unified. No tests were run because this is a docs-only change.
