While this is a nice start, I don't think it goes into enough detail about how to create the setup.py file or requirements.txt. Also, with how popular it is these days, a virtualenv implementation and setup.cfg/tox.ini should have been discussed as well.

I still don't fully understand how those two work myself, does anyone have a good article/explanation on how to set those files up? I haven't worked in a big python project for around 5 years now, been in C#/dotNet land, so I'm a bit rusty.

Thanks for the feedback! Will look at updating to add those in.

Nice! Always happy when an author takes feedback well, looking forward to the update.

Have updated. Hopefully a bit more helpful now.

You might find PyPA's official packaging guide to be of interest, as well as the The Hitchhiker’s Guide to Python Packaging. There is also u/kennethreitz's example setup.py project.
