 To be able to create a python package, we need a folder with the name of the package (in this repository it is called `mypackage`, located under `src/mypackage`), and a `pyproject.toml` file.
 
+## Repository structure
+We recommend using the source layout. See [this chapter](https://py-pkgs.org/04-package-structure.html#the-source-layout) for justification.
+
 
 ## Pyproject.toml
+A [toml](https://toml.io/en/) (Tom's Obivous Minimal Language) file is a plain-text file, consisting of [tables](https://toml.io/en/v1.0.0#table)
+which are a selection of key-value pairs.
+
+An example is 
+```toml
+[project]
+name = "catch_us"
+authors = [
+    {name = "Per Ulv", email = "per@acme.no"},
+    {name = "Bippe Stankelbein", email = "bippe@roadrunner.no"}
+    ]
+version = "x.y.z" 
+description = "Meep Meep"
+# "readme" the description field in your package, 
+# see: https://python-poetry.org/docs/pyproject/#readme
+readme = "README.md" 
+requires-python = ">=3.8"
+# Path to license file, see: https://spdx.org/licenses/
+# for a selection of licenses
+license = {file = "LICENSE"}
+# Direct dependencies
+dependencies = [
+    'acme',
+    'numpy'
+]
+```
+
+### Optional dependencies
+The core functionality of a package (its classes and functions) might not depend on many other packages.
+
+However, to be able to test the code, check for consistency and create coverage reports, one might meed additional dependencies.
+
+One can therefore specify a second table in the `pyproject.toml` file, called
+[project.optional-depencies].
+This is treated as a sub-table of `project`.
+
+For instance, if you want to test your package with [pytest](https://docs.pytest.org/en/7.1.x/), you can add
+```toml
+[project.optional-dependencies]
+test = ["pytest"]
+```
+Then, when installing the package, you call `pip3 install .[test]` instead of `pip3 install .` to get the additional dependencies.
 
+### Other tables
+For options related to coverage reports and code consistency, see the [Coverage](./coverage) and [Linting](./linting.md) section, respectively.
