Kedro is an open-sourced Python framework for creating maintainable and modular data science code.

Kedro

hello, may I ask what the difference is between using `kedro package` to create a whl file to install versus using the conventional method of running `python -m build`?

Hey <@U063HUYT37H> very little - it was introduced as convenience function for people who weren’t familiar with packaging

there are also some default assumptions about _what_ is packaged i.e. conf is not included as per the <https://12factor.net/config|12 factor app>

<https://docs.kedro.org/en/stable/tutorial/package_a_project.html#package-a-kedro-project>

also note that <https://pypi.org/project/build/#history|build> was released in 2020 which Kedro pre-dates so things were slightly more complicated when we started this journey
