- nopenopenopeno 5y agoI used this project once and it was a huge distraction. It also ended up making us have to pin the whole project to python version 3.6 when 3.9 was out because it wasn’t sufficiently maintained itself. It was much more sustainable and maintainable to just write our own build scripts for each platform with template tags and automate from there.
