What does this have to do with NFI???

[Spixmaster]

@jurekl This software has a file pyproject.toml which specifies how to install this software according to PEP 517. It does not seem to work.

I never noticed this file (toml). He wasn't needed for anything :-) I think that in practice it is still unnecessary. Configuring the strategy is described in detail in the Freqtrade manual. You can also learn how to install this strategy on the NFI discord. It's actually a simple process of copying the strategy file (NFI) and specifying its location in the FT configuration.

Yes, however for packaging reasons a standard way would be beneficial. I package it for the AUR.
