Solving package management with pixi @prefix_dev
@home
Joined October 2022
Congratulations to our friends at @anacondainc for shipping CEP-16 (sharded repodata). If you use conda-forge from https://t.co/3pAL5rGiWd servers, pixi & rattler-build got magically a lot faster! https://t.co/WgGIeEnjfY

Conda fetches repodata much more quickly. Learn how we did it and who helped along the way.

As #ROSCon 2024 had the spotlight on Zenoh, this year a lot of people were excited about #Pixi from @prefix_dev . But I also talked with people that don't understand what the fuzz is about. Great link below to understand the value proposition 👇 https://t.co/2Sr2nUEXBw

Developing Robots is hard; Pixi makes it easier by creating reproducible, cross-platform ROS development environments without Docker or Ubuntu lock-in.

The frontpage of https://t.co/OVbt6F7R1t is really good! Every #ROS developer should have it in their bookmarks.

@tunguz For me it's just use Pixi by @prefix_dev ( for polyglot or projects needing conda ) and uv by @astral_sh . docker does help for things like databases and servers using @OrbStack on Mac..

We're launching our new identity today! Do you like it? Read all about it:
prefix.dev
Since 2021 we've used the same identity and the website was mostly consistent, today we are transitioning to a new identity.

The amazing @catppuccintheme has chosen the magic wand as the icon for a Pixi manifest. Should we make it the official Pixi logo? Don't worry, Paxton (our mascot) will stay!

Last year it was a blast, this year is going to be even better! Very thankful I'm given the chance to show Pixi this year!
Interested in how Pixi will enhance the lives of ROS developers? Join our talk at #ROSCon2025! Or come visit @rarts_ruby and @baszalmstra at the Startup Alley! #ROSCON #Robotics @OpenRoboticsOrg

Pixi Global is known as a tool to manage CLI applications, but did you know that you can also install shell completions and even graphical user interfaces with it? Learn more by reading Lucas' and Julian's blog post: https://t.co/hCMj9YLdHu

Meet Pixi: the workspace-centric package manager built on Conda + Mamba to ensure every collaborator runs the exact same environment 👥 In this week’s #PythonTips, Anaconda’s Dawn Wages shows how Pixi streamlines scientific & ML workflows.

We're continuing our little deep dive series into Conda packaging. Mutex packages are useful to guide the SAT solver into specific parts of the dependency tree, and globally select either a GPU or CPU variant or similar features for an environment.

Mutex packages are a useful mechanism to guide the solver towards certain dependencies, mutually excluding other dependency trees.
