scikit-package 0.0.3rc1

A Python package standard and generator for scientific code. Use scikit-package to launch a new project or migrate existing ones to support the latest Python versions and streamline the process of distributing and maintaining your software package.

scikit-package offers tools and practices for the scientific community to make better and more reusable Scientific Python packages and applications:

• We help scientists share scientific code to amplify research impact.

• We help scientists save time, allowing them to focus on writing scientific code.

• We offer best practices from the group’s experience in developing scientific software.
