So great! Thank you so much @sanders41 for this PR ❤️
Should we not change the CONTRIBUTING to add pipenv run python3 -m build?

I don't currently see a section for this in the CONTRIBUTING do you want to add it? Do you ever do manual releases or is it always with GH Actions?

If all goes well normally it's still github-action, so no need for you to add it in Contributing you right, I'll merge it right away.
