Description
I followed simple git clone and tried doing pip install ./scikit_build_example
ended up with this error
Unknown CMake command "python_add_library".
had to make a small tweak in CMakeLists.txt and added this line find_package(Python COMPONENTS Interpreter Development REQUIRED) before the line find_package(pybind11 CONFIG REQUIRED)

Read CMakeLists.txt around find_package(pybind11 CONFIG REQUIRED), then reproduce the failure with pip install ./scikit_build_example. Done means the package builds without the Unknown CMake command error and no manual edit is needed.
