# Publishing a package
uv does not yet have dedicated commands for building and publishing a package. Instead, you can use
the PyPA tools [`build`](https://github.com/pypa/build) and
[`twine`](https://github.com/pypa/twine), both of which can be invoked via `uvx`.
## Building your package
Build your package with the official `build` frontend:
```console
$ uvx --from build pyproject-build
```
The build artifacts will be placed in `dist/`.
## Publishing your package
Publish your package with `twine`:
```console
$ uvx twine upload dist/*
```
!!! tip
To provide credentials, use the `TWINE_USERNAME` and `TWINE_PASSWORD` environment variables.
## Installing your package
Test that the package can be installed and imported with `uv run`:
```console
$ uv run --with <PACKAGE> --no-project -- python -c "import <PACKAGE>"
```
The `--no-project` flag is used to avoid installing the package from your local project directory.
!!! tip
If you have recently installed the package, you may need to include the
`--refresh-package <PACKAGE>` option to avoid using a cached version of the package.
## Next steps
To learn more about publishing packages, check out the
[PyPA guides](https://packaging.python.org/en/latest/guides/section-build-and-publish/) on building
and publishing.
