Python + Docker + GCP👋 3

06/29/2021, 11:04 PMYea... "project" is a bit of an abstract term in this case. In pants we'd refer more to `python_distribution`s and `pex_binary`s than to projects, because those are the parts that are never shared between "projects".

06/29/2021, 11:22 PMHmm, I kind of see where you're coming from. I'm reading through the docs right now and just scratching the surface of everything. Do you have any other example/fully fledged python repos I could see? It would help solidify some of these lessons 🙂
