Recommended way to migrate an existing package to Pkg3

  1. There should be a default Project.toml for your version Julia version. Project specific ones override the default one.
  2. When everything is working the dependencies are computed from the Project.toml not from REQUIRE. You don’t need the REQUIRE file anymore.
  3. Projects are similar to .Rproj and other implementations. You need the whole shebang. You can download them to any directory and work with it there.
