We're building the fast, deterministic and reproducible package manager Pixi for scientific and robotics workflows. Based on @condaforge & @robostack packages.
We just made it really easy to switch from conda to pixi. You can now use the pixi init - - import environment.yml to quickly port a conda project. You automatically get a pixi.toml, lockfiles and a powerful task system.
pixi update --offline now resolves against only what you already have: the package cache and local file:// channels.
Air-gapped machines, planes, CI without egress.
Pixi now fully supports archspec, so you can create CPU-optimized environments and let Pixi handle the installation logic.
