@jagerber many thanks for this feedback. I did open an issue about being more specific about what building is here - We need to answer the question - what is "building" a package 路 Issue #74 路 pyOpenSci/python-package-guide 路 GitHub feel free to add to that issue and open any other issues that you have regarding what would be helpful to folks such as yourself in terms of documentation 
i鈥檓 also working on some draft graphics that will hopefully tie together the entire process of creating and building a package as it relates to the various tools (these are just drafts). we welcome your feeedback in our repo via issues (to avoid distracting from this convo here !)
So this would be setuptools/build + twine for example.
