Consider adding a pyproject.toml

[dnil]

The current setup.py based install is kind of deprecated

  DEPRECATION: Building 'abacus' using the legacy setup.py bdist_wheel mechanism, which will be removed in a future version. pip 25.3 will enforce this behaviour change. A possible replacement is to use the standardized build interface by setting the `--use-pep517` option, (possibly combined with `--no-build-isolation`), or adding a `pyproject.toml` file to the source tree of 'abacus'. Discussion can be found at https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/6334

I personally like uv with hatchling for building, but to each their own! It was a perfectly smooth install once I realised you had a conda env yml file! 😸
