Install the current package in development mode with develop mode. For pip this uses ``-e`` option, so should be
avoided if you've specified a custom :ref:`install_command` that does not support ``-e``.
Install the current package in development mode using `PEP-660 <https://peps.python.org/pep-0660/>`. This means that the
package will be installed in-place and editable.

.. note::

`package = editable` is the preferred way to enable development/editable mode. See the details in :ref:`package`.

.. note::

PEP-660 introduced a standardized way of installing a package in development mode, providing the same effect as if
`pip install -e` was used.
