Super stoked that SciCommander (track provenance for any file produced by your ad-hoc shell usage into HTML reports & more) is now on @condaforge! 🥳
Install with:
conda install conda-forge::scicommander
pixi add scicommander
anaconda.org/channels/conda-…
Poster for info 👇
pixi 0.76 can now run standalone python scripts in isolated, on-demand environments.
dependencies live inline via PEP 723, like @astral_sh uv supports, but pixi can layer on conda and system dependencies too.
fun to build this with @prefix_dev folks. up next: @marimo_io 👀

New community tool: a live dashboard for the conda-forge staged-recipes queue.
See which new packages are waiting for review, what's passing CI, and where things are stuck, all in one place.
Using @bioconda usually means also configuring @condaforge and a few other channels by hand. Cumbersome, and easy to get wrong.
Our new channel-relations CEP moves that info into repodata, so the solver just knows which channels belong together.
Pixi v0.75.0 now ships with an --offline mode.
Install your environments directly from the shared cache, even on the train or plane! 🛫

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

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/hdf…
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!

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!
