The official PyPA sample project demonstrating how to package and distribute Python projects using pyproject.toml. It serves as a companion example for the Python Packaging User Guide's distribution tutorial.

Use cases

  • learn how to package a python project
  • example pyproject.toml for pypi distribution
  • template for creating a new python package
  • understand python packaging metadata
  • follow the python packaging user guide tutorial
  • see how to publish a package to pypi

When to choose

  • you are new to Python packaging and want a canonical, maintained example
  • you need a minimal pyproject.toml reference to copy from
  • you are following the PyPUG packaging tutorial

When to avoid

  • you need production best practices for testing, CI, or documentation tooling
  • you want a full-featured cookiecutter template with linting and automation
  • you need packaging guidance for non-Python ecosystems
