Hey there, sorry it took a while to get to this. I don't really have a problem with moving to 3.10 and to a .toml file, that seems fine to me, but you've made this pull request a draft that can't be merged. Not sure if this was meant more to open a discussion or if that was an accident? Let me know, thanks! EDIT: Oh, I understand now that I can manually swap a pull request from a draft via review, no I suppose that can be ignored

Also, can you explain the purpose of the included uv.lock file? I'm not sure if it was intended to be there, but it contains a lot more data fields that I'm unsure of the purpose of

Also, can you explain the purpose of the included uv.lock file?

it's used for ensuring consistent dependencies and SBOM tracking when using uv (https://docs.astral.sh/uv/).
it's a lock file just like a package-lock.json for JS projects. Yes, it should be checked in and updated whenever dependencies change
