Updates all Flash documentation to reflect that Python 3.12 is now the only supported version. Previously, Flash supported Python 3.10, 3.11, and 3.12, but this has been locked to 3.12 only for both GPU and CPU workers to ensure consistent package ABI compatibility.

Agent Response

I've created a documentation suggestion to update the Flash Python version requirement from 3.10-3.12 to 3.12 only.

Summary

PR #292 locks all Flash workers to Python 3.12 and removes multi-version support. This fixes a bug where CPU workers without an explicit python_version were deploying on the developer's local Python version instead of 3.12, causing C-extension packages to fail at runtime.

Documentation changes

I updated 8 files to reflect the new Python 3.12 requirement:

Core Flash docs:

  • flash/quickstart.mdx - Requirements section
  • flash/overview.mdx - Install Flash section
  • flash/apps/build-app.mdx - Requirements section
  • flash/cli/build.mdx - Build validation step and simplified the "Python version in deployed workers" section (removed the table since all workers now use 3.12)
  • flash/troubleshooting.mdx - Unsupported Python version error section

Flash tutorials:

  • tutorials/flash/text-generation-with-transformers.mdx
  • tutorials/flash/image-generation-with-sdxl.mdx
  • tutorials/flash/build-rest-api-with-load-balancer.mdx

The suggestion is ready for review at: https://app.gopromptless.ai/suggestions/8fbecc5c-c011-43e7-bdf3-821bc6ea1560
