Conda Forge

Conda-forge is now citable! Please use our freshly minted DOI if you need to mention us in proposals or papers: zenodo.org/record/4774217

Do you want to control your Spot robot dog from a Pixi environment? You can now easily install the spot-cpp-sdk from @condaforge! github.com/boston-dynamic…

Pytorch + Ultralytics + ROS2 Humble on a Nvidia Jetson Nano with no Docker! Pixi, together with @condaforge and @RoboStack, makes this possible! #ROS #nvidia #opencv

Thanks to @github and @microsoft @azure, @condaforge now natively compiles on macOS Arm64 and Linux Aarch64 machines. Thank you!

These days, I have been working with Pixi. I have forked github.com/RoboStack/ros-… to create a buildfarm of packages for Kilted of part of the software we produce at@IntellRobotLabs, and I have uploaded the packages to prefix.dev/channels/irl-k… github.com/IntelligentRob… @RoboStack

"Building From Source Shouldn't Be This Hard" That's our motto, read our latest blogpost to understand what we're building and how Pixi already helps you with today! 🗞️ Read it here: prefix.dev/blog/building-… #pacakgemanagement #pixi #ROS #condaforge

Pixi GUI now supports an interactive view to inspect the lockfile! - 🔎 Search in the table - ©️ Visualize and sort licenses - 🌲 Tree view for clear dependency relations - 🌐 Links directly to the browser.

HDF5 2.1.0 is officially on @condaforge! Jump to the 2.x series with the new ROS3 backed by Amazon's C S3 library, modern hardware datatype support (bfloat16), new defaults for cloud optimized HDF5, and improved performance overall! Check out the files: anaconda.org/conda-forge/hd…

Pixi can now natively build R packages - for your own packages or thirdparty packages from CRAN or Github. The new `pixi-build-r` build backend makes it possible. pixi-build-r will install compilers, system-level dependencies and R / r-packages from @condaforge.

Exciting news! We're thrilled to welcome Pavel as our first Pixi core maintainer from outside Prefix! With his extensive contributions, we have full confidence in his stewardship of the project. Thank you for your past work, and here’s to an even stronger collaboration ahead!

The RFC period has started on the "staging cache" CEP for the v1 recipe format. This might sound like gibberish but is a powerful feature that will allow us to convert more (complicated!) packages on @condaforge to the V1 recipe format!

You can now install the Open-Source physics engine, Newton, with Pixi! 🤖 Getting a full humanoid robot simulator has never been easier, just run one command! Check out the original announcement: github.com/newton-physics… #robotics #NVIDIA #warp #newton

We improved our package builder Rattler-Build a lot over the past months, so we wrote a blog post about it! prefix.dev/blog/whats-new…

Thanks to @github and @microsoft @azure for their continued sponsorship. We can now natively compile packages on macOS Arm64 and Linux Aarch64 machines. Thank you!

Europe and China are both investing heavily in RISC-V chips. Thanks to @openKylin the @condaforge project is making progress as well. Today I ran Pixi on RISC-V for the first time. If you're investing in RISC-V infrastructure and want the package tooling to match — let's talk.

A brain in a conda package. What!? Read our latest blogpost on how to ship AI/ML models with conda packages! prefix.dev/blog/packaging…

rattler-build handles thousands of real world packages, and they often come with small patches. Historically, we used a mix of `git apply` and `patch`, but both have issues for cross-platform compatibility with a wide range of real-world patches. Now, we have our own Rust library

Today was a good day for the @gnome ecosystem on @condaforge! Two PRs merged to get more low level libraries: libadwaita, sassc, appstream, libshumate and json-glibc by Dan Yeaw and Felix Häcker.

When you're building recipes for conda-forge, there is an example list that you can use as inspiration for your own recipe! Hopefully we can extend this list with more community help! conda-forge.org/docs/maintaine…

1/ Even packages from @condaforge get a provenance snippet - as they contain information about the originating feedstock (but not signed using sigstore).

Many RISC-V experts at the @condaforge meeting today. This is going to move quickly! Pixi also just finished building for RISC-V, exciting stuff.
