The “How do I Install this” is actually designed to take someone to a beginners guide on how to use pip to install packages while the “pip install six” snippet is designed for someone who already knows the basics to just have something they can easily copy/paste (including a little button you can click to get it copied to your clipboard). We have a number of technical writers who have volunteered to help make packaging.python.org better and a beginners guide is one of the items they’re going to be working on. > > I would also suggest a bit more care on the typography :-) The main > body text here: > https://warehouse.python.org/project/requests/ > looks much less nice than here: > https://pypi.python.org/pypi/requests/ > > (actually, in both those pages, it would be nice trying justifying the > text, as well) The main body text on the detail pages hasn’t been styled at all yet (tracked by https://github.com/pypa/warehouse/issues/801). > > Regards > > Antoine. > > > _______________________________________________ > Distutils-SIG maillist - [email protected] > https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/distutils-sig ----------------- Donald Stufft PGP: 0x6E3CBCE93372DCFA // 7C6B 7C5D 5E2B 6356 A926 F04F 6E3C BCE9 3372 DCFA
