Description

Currently, it is not evident where to send the people who want to wrap their extensions into package, or (maybe even more importan) port their eggs.

    You're right, it could do with a little more direction. I was thinking about adding a link to the PyPA guide to Packaging your Project. Does that seem appropriate to you?

    I don't have time to follow the instruction right, because I am on Windows and don't have compiler installed. But the good proof check would if frida/frida-python#38 could be solved by a person who care little about wheels. The key points:

    • if he could directly understand what needs to be done and what should be available (setup.py?) without bouncing from the site (usually it is scanning page and selecting info in about 0.1-3 seconds)
    • complete the task in 15 minutes

    I don't think that we would be able to provide the information required to compile a project like that. Anyone with that sort of project will surely have to use the official docs instead.

    pythonwheels.com is of course, not a place to this information, but it should link to the tutorial that is most helpful. In most technical projects, official docs are usually a place of last resort.
