Description

I believe you can do python -m robotpy installer install /path/to/foo.whl, just make sure to remove it from your pyproject.toml (or pin it to your version) otherwise the deploy might decide to install the other version.

Probably should document this and add something to make it so that the deploy doesn't overwrite the manually installed version.

Research direction

Start with the documented command python -m robotpy installer install /path/to/foo.whl and review how pyproject.toml pins or lists the package. Use the linked discussion for context. Done means the custom-wheel installation and pinning requirements are documented, and the deploy behavior regarding a manually installed version is clarified or addressed.
