Description

Hi,
I am trying to install this on my Linux machine. I get this error:

ERROR: Project file:///home/rat42/GitHub/graphite has a 'pyproject.toml' and its build backend is missing the 'build_editable' hook. Since it does not have a 'setup.py' nor a 'setup.cfg', it cannot be installed in editable mode. Consider using a build backend that supports PEP 660.

I tried creating an empty setup.cfg file but that did not help.

Research direction

Start with pyproject.toml and reproduce the reported editable installation command on Linux. Inspect the configured build backend and its support for PEP 660; the issue is done when the project installs successfully in editable mode without requiring an empty setup.cfg.
