Description

When installing certain libraries, need to somehow tie together wpilib releases and NI image versions. Right now it checks them independently.

I'm thinking maybe some metadata in pyproject.toml that can be extracted by the installer? Or maybe a special thing equivalent to python_requires.

No files or tests are named. Start by reviewing how the installer independently checks WPILib releases and NI image versions, then examine the proposed pyproject.toml metadata approach. Done means a defined mechanism that ties compatible releases and image versions together during installation.
