# Exercise 9.5: Make a package

> Source: Practical Python Programming, `09_Packages/03_Distribution.md`.

### Exercise 9.5:  Make a package

Take the `porty-app/` code you created for Exercise 9.3 and see if you
can recreate the steps described here.  Specifically, add a `setup.py`
file and a `MANIFEST.in` file to the top-level directory.
Create a source distribution file by running `python setup.py sdist`.

As a final step, see if you can install your package into a Python
virtual environment.
