New project set up ideas

Hi WBX

Since you are only recently embarking on WBX, maybe of interest.

I have just finished configuring a new python project for an ML course I am teaching later this year at AIMS SA (where Stephan Hoyer recently presented a talk).

Have set it up with some modern alternatives:

• UV instead of pip
• ruff instead of flake8
• pyright instead of mypy
• pyproject.toml instead of setup.py

The above tools run on automated CI pipelines in github actions whenever a PR is raised from a feature branch into the development branch
Also set it up as a package so that 1) functions can be imported from anywhere using absolute paths; 2) unit tests can run in github actions.

Up to you but here is the github repo in case you want to take some ideas.
I worked with the UV team to ensure a solid set up.

Hi,
sorry for the delayed response and thanks for the suggestion.

One reason I haven't switched to pyproject.toml is that the Dataflow jobs require passing setup.py as an argument. I don't know whether this works for pyproject.toml as well.
