Thanks! I've been using an older setup.py approach, but I found pyproject.toml much more convenient.

Very useful for newbs like me, to do things following best practices. Thanks

Thanks, you helped explain things as I have been trying out poetry in my new apps. Curious if you use it. I find it cumbersome up front but will keep using to see if more usage will streamline things. Where exactly does your .egg folder reside?

So you don't need a requirements.txt anymore but 'can' you add one anyway for people that prefer it? Or would that cause conflicts?

Thank you so much. Can you please explain what are .venv, .gitignore, input.md? And the general directory structure. Thank you again.
