Description
We should probably recommend using uv for Python installation in our docs.
Make it clear that only Python 3.10 and 3.11 are supported whilst we have Fortran in the code.

Research direction
Locate and read the installation documentation, then identify the section covering Python setup. Update it to recommend uv and clearly state that Python 3.10 and 3.11 are the supported versions while Fortran remains part of the code; the documentation should make both installation guidance and version limits unambiguous.
