First of all, thanks to all contributors, great job 🚀.

I basically propose migrating to PEP 621 and using a single file (pyproject.toml) to both configure package metadata, tox, coverage, and flake8 configuration also removing MANIFEST.in.

Here are all the files that will be replaced by pyproject.toml:

• .coveragerc
• MANIFEST.in
• requirements.txt
• setup.cfg
• setup.py
• tox.ini

• PEP 621 - Storing project metadata in pyproject.toml
• Python Packaging User Guide
• Also check out the setuptools documentation
