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`. 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.
