Motivation

wheel is a binary packaging format. At the moment, we use source code distributions. This requires building code in some cases, which might require additional libraries to be installed. This is a rabbit hole process we want to avoid to preserve people's time and minds(especially on the FE). Also, since wheels are smaller this might improve the situation with new pip's resolver that tries to download all packages to find all compatible dependencies.

To Do

Add wheel package support to yolapi

Requirements

It should be possible to download build binary packages from yolapi.

And drop support for eggs, we don't use them any more.

For wheels, we should probably only allow pure python wheels to be uploaded. And import them with source tarballs, when importing from PyPI.
