# Python Packaging User Guide

The Python Packaging Authority produces an excellent resource called the [Python
Packaging User Guide](https://packaging.python.org/en/latest/), "a collection of
tutorials and references to help you distribute and install Python packages with modern
tools".

If you're feeling frustrated by Python packaging, I highly recommend reading through
this guide and considering it's suggestions.

The [Python Developer Tooling Handbook](https://pydevtools.com/handbook/index.md) covers much of
the same material, but it is intended as a complement to the Python Packaging User
Guide, not a replacement.
