This is now covered in :doc:`../reference/build-system/index`.
+Differences to ``build``
+------------------------
+
+`build `_ is a simple tool which can among other things build
+wheels for projects using PEP 517. It is comparable to the execution of ``pip wheel --no-deps .``.
+It can also build source distributions which is not possible with ``pip``.
+``pip wheel`` covers the wheel scope of ``build`` but offers many additional features.
