It provides the basic functionality to help write tooling that generates distribution files from Python projects. If you want a tool that builds Python packages, you'll want to use https://github.com/pypa/build instead. This is an underlying piece for `pip`, `build` and other "build frontends" use to call "build backends" within them. You can read more in the `documentation `_. Note: The ``pep517`` project has been replaced by this project (low level) and the ``build`` project (high level).
