Pants

<@U051221NF> the example Python repo is slow for me to build on my M1 (30 seconds) because there is no wheel for lxml, so it has to compile. Thoughts on removing `translate` from example-python?

I think it would also simplify the code. To demo third-party deps, seems sufficient to just use `ansicolors` and `setuptools`/`pkg_resources`

`example-golang` is a hello-world repo also, but much simpler: <https://github.com/pantsbuild/example-golang>

I think that simplicity is valuable with an example. The interesting parts should be Pants, not the code itself

although that problem is a real-world problem...

sure, but we can also hardcode `translations.json`. I don't think we need a super robust third-party library that works with 100+ languages to demo Pants

imo the interesting pieces with using translate were:

• using a third-party requirement
• loading a resource file for our `config.json`
We can still demo both those things
