Description
Description:
Try recreating the caas-aspace-scripts repo using uv and see if it is worth rolling into main. Main advantages would be:
- Eliminating requirements.txt and replacing it with pyproject.toml - greater control over python versioning, dependencies, and run conditions (?)
- Much faster dependency install times
- Possible management of .env files over using bespoke DotENV
