This also needs conditional import logic like https://github.com/aviadr1/winuvloop/blob/main/winuvloop/init.py

However, the lint rule is failing because it looks like the regex is too strict?

Edit: never mind, fixed it.

[sparkprime]

On second thoughts maybe it's better just to swap the uvloop dependency with winuvloop and let it do the logic?

[sparkprime]

I found out that we don't even import uvloop on windows, so the fix is just to make the build-time dependency conditional on not being windows. As we don't need winloop, we don't need winuvloop either.

Same here!

If you use uv to manage dependencies, there is another solution before this PR merged.

[tool.uv]
override-dependencies = ["uvloop;sys_platform != 'win32'"]
