The Pixi team is at ROSCON in Toronto - come find the yellow backpacks if you want to chat! We keep spotting Pixi in so many cool robotics projects and it's making us proud. To get a glimpse of what we're working on, join the talk about the EU CRA this afternoon!

If you see one of these people #ROSCON, they are likely from prefix.dev! Come say hi, we're friendly! 💛

We made it easy to install Isaac ROS! The new `isaac-forge` repository contains many upstream NVIDIA Isaac ROS packages to make them installable with Pixi. You can test it today on your #NIVIDA #Jetson!
No docker needed!

Congratulations to the Mojo 1.0 release @Modular! So glad to have you in our community, and seeing @clattner_llvm on stage with `pixi` in the background was definitely a highlight for us.

Use pixi global to install any project from source now.
Pixi global supports the full package spec to configure the neccesary information to install it directly, without a pixi.toml.

Building a git repo that never heard of Pixi used to mean forking it.
Now you declare the build backend inline and Pixi builds it from source.

Same but with pixi.prefix.dev/

PEP 723 only covers Python and PyPI, so Pixi reads tool.pixi for the rest.
Which means conda dependencies in a standalone script.

As our server grows (600+ channels!) we had to redesign our channel page. It offers you an easier way to find your own or other interesting channels to fetch packages from!

We've been driving one of the biggest changes to the conda ecosystem since its inception: repodata v3.
Extras, conditional dependencies, and variant flags, expressed directly in the repodata. Now in beta 👇

⚡ Tutorial Spotlight: Reproducible CUDA doesn't have to be complicated! Matthew Feickert, Ruben Arts & Katrina Riehl will show you how to easily create reproducible scientific and AI/ML environments that leverage GPU acceleration across multiple machines and platforms with Pixi.
Damn I should have used a picture with our new logo! Excited to give this talk though!

expectations vs reality of getting into robotics:
everyone posts dancing humanoids and simulations
you: version hell, hardware incompatibilities, computer catching fire the moment something works
real boots on the ground physical AI reporting.
(yes, literally)

If you want to come talk about robots (or turtles) we're holding a meetup on Tuesday night.
