+  message(
+    WARNING
+      "\
+  This CMake file is meant to be executed using 'scikit-build-core'.
+  Running it directly will almost certainly not produce the desired
+  result. If you are a user trying to install this package, use the
+  command below, which will install all necessary build dependencies,
+  compile the package in an isolated environment, and then install it.
+  =====================================================================
+   $ pip install python/finufft
+   or
+   $ pip install python/cufinufft
+  =====================================================================
+  If you are a software developer, and this is your own package, then
+  it is usually much more efficient to install the build dependencies
+  in your environment once and use the following command that avoids
+  a costly creation of a new virtual environment at every compilation:
+  =====================================================================
+   $ pip install finufft scikit-build-core[pyproject]
+   $ pip install --no-build-isolation -ve .
+  =====================================================================
+  You may optionally add -Ceditable.rebuild=true to auto-rebuild when
+  the package is imported. Otherwise, you need to rerun the above
+  after editing C++ files.")
