[Python] How to manually set certain dependecies in local dev enviorment for UV Python...

[project]
name = "sample_project"
version = "0.1.0"
description = "Add your description here"
readme = "README.md"
requires-python = ">=3.12"

dependencies = [
"anytree",
"pyvis",
"pandas>=2",
"numpy>=2",
"statsmodels>=0",
"matplotlib>=3",

"plotly>=5",
"pyarrow>=18",
"polars>=1",
"scipy>=1",
"xgboost>=2",
"lightgbm>=4",
"scikit-learn>=1",
"numba>=0",
"num2words>=0",
"sqlalchemy>=2",
"pygount",
