It would be great if that tool existed, but it doesn’t seem to right now. I can appreciate the instinct to improve packaging, but from an occasional Python developer’s perspective things are getting worse. I published a few packages before the pandemic that had compiled extensions. I tried to do the same at my new job and got so lost in the new tools, I eventually just gave up.

One of Python’s great strengths is the belief there should be one, obvious right way to things. This lack of unity in the packing environment is ruining my zen.
