We worked together with AWS Deadline Cloud to improve S3 support in our tools! Pixi and rattler-build now seamlessly authenticate using default credentials on your system, making it simple to upload, download and index packages on S3 buckets.
Normally, development tooling and package publishing live in separate worlds: you use one workflow to build and test your software locally, and a completely different one to publish it. Wouldn't it be great to use the same manifest that describes your project environment to also define how the package is built, versioned, and released?
Hey there! I'm Swastik. I completed a 3-month internship at prefix.dev under the ESoC'25 (European Summer of Code) program, and this blog is all about my internship experience.
Developing Robots is hard; Pixi makes it easier by creating reproducible, cross-platform ROS development environments without Docker or Ubuntu lock-in.
Cross compiling is a fundamental capability in modern software development, allowing developers to build packages for different architectures without needing access to the target hardware.
Since 2021 we've used the same identity and the website was mostly consistent, today we are transitioning to a new identity.
Pixi Global can be used for much more than just downloading and exposing CLI tools. In this blog post, we demonstrate two capabilities of pixi global which are core to making it a featureful and powerful system package manager: shortcuts, and (auto-)completions.
Mutex packages are a useful mechanism to guide the solver towards certain dependencies, mutually excluding other dependency trees.
Painless dependency management (including shared libraries), monorepos and CI/CD is here for C++/CMake projects with Pixi.
We're pleased to announce that sigstore support is now in public beta on prefix.dev! The Conda ecosystem can now use Sigstore to enhance the Software Supply Chain Security with cryptographic attestations.
This is a guest blog post by Jackson Oursland - a FreeCAD maintainer and esteemed member of the conda-forge and Pixi community! FreeCAD uses Conda packages to build AppImages, DMG and Windows artifacts. Pixi greatly simplifies the developer workflow.
