Reference: Packages and packaging

Quick-lookup pages. Short, dense, and designed to skim — the sort of thing you keep a tab open on while you're writing or fixing a pyproject.toml. If you're here to learn the topic for the first time, start with Learn instead.

Pages in this section

• Import statement forms — every shape import and from … import … can take.
• pip command quick reference — install, freeze, list, show, uninstall, and the most useful flags.
• pyproject.toml field reference — the [build-system] and [project] tables, field by field.
• Project layout — the canonical src/ layout, with notes on tests, docs, and config files.
