Regarding Conda and pip package distribution

[Raahul-Singh]

Hi!
I'd like to help in the pip packaging of neuromancer.
Has any work started on this already?
If not, is there any plan to do so?

Thank you so much for this project!

Hi @Raahul-Singh, thank you for your interest in the library.

We currently support pip install from local toml file.

Packaging and hosting the library on PyPI is on the development plan, but currently, we don't have the resources allocated to this task. Therefore any proposed solution would be highly appreciated.

In that case, let's start with a simple twine based pypi upload.

First, we'd need to set up an account on PyPI and optionally on Test PyPI (useful for testing package uploads)
For building the wheels, we can use build
This will produce files in the dist directory.

I've, built and tested the distribution installation locally.

We can then upload using twine

For future updates, we'll to change the version number in pyproject.toml.

I feel this is the simplest way to start with the distribution. Should we proceed with this?
