    This step is necessary for displaying LazyVim and special icons appropriately. You have to use a terminal that supports LazyVim - wezterm. If you haven't installed scoop, you can just manually download and install WezTerm from here

  10. uv

    An extremely fast Python package and project manager, written in Rust.

    Currently it seems like uv is not supporting global python versions you can see from this GitHub ticket. If you really like the speed and performance of uv you can try to combine the best of both worlds: Using pyenv for managing global Python versions and using uv for managing your project-specific dependencies.

  11. pyenv-installer

    This tool is used to install `pyenv` and friends.

    Reference: https://github.com/pyenv/pyenv-installer?tab=readme-ov-file#install
