#04 – Modules & Modern Python Project Structure

Short summary

This tutorial covers Python modules, packages, imports, and modern project structure for developers. It explains absolute vs relative imports, the __name__ == "__main__" entry point pattern, and how to organize codebases from simple scripts to production microservices. The guide also compares classic pip/venv workflows against uv, a Rust-based package manager that claims 10–100x faster environment setup and dependency installation.

  • Learn Python modules, packages, __init__.py, and absolute vs relative imports
  • Understand the __name__ entry point pattern and production project layouts
  • Compare pip/venv vs uv for virtual environment and dependency management
