Modern Python packaging without pain
summary
Explains a concrete, minimal workflow: simple module + README + setup.py or project.toml, build an sdist + wheel, and upload with twine upload to Test PyPI; demonstrates installing the uploaded package (example "not-taco" emoji classifier) to prove the pipeline works. Covers setuptools, pip, wheel, twine, and newer tools like poetry/poetryenv and pyproject.toml / PEP 517 build backend. Notes PyPI receives ~100 package submissions per day and recommends Markdown long_description, classifiers, and develop mode for fast iteration.
