A New Pixi Login Flow

Increasing the security of our users is a top priority these days. That’s why we’ve added OAuth 2.0 support to prefix.dev. You now have a fancy login-flow for Pixi and other tools.

Pixi supports RISC-V

As the RISC-V ecosystem matures from silicon to software, one piece has been missing: a modern, cross-platform package manager that makes it as easy to develop on RISC-V as on x86 or ARM. That changes today. Pixi now natively supports RISC-V (riscv64), bringing the full power of the conda ecosystem to open hardware.

Seeking Reproducible Research Software: How the UW Scientific Software Engineering Center Adopted Pixi

At the University of Washington Scientific Software Engineering Center (SSEC), our mission is to enhance our partners software development capabilities to bolster their research. In scientific research, reproducibility is the gold standard. The ability for another researcher to take your code, data, and environment to arrive at the exact same results is essential.

Introducing Pixi GUI

Hi, I’m Felix. I’m excited to share what I’ve been building over the past few months! Since last year I work as a working student at prefix.dev. As part of my bachelor's thesis, I designed and implemented a graphical user interface for the package manager Pixi, named Pixi GUI.

Publishing Conda Packages on Amazon S3

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.

Building your own build backend for Pixi

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?

Using Pixi as a System Package Manager with Shortcuts and Completions

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.

S3 support in Pixi and rattler-build

We're excited to announce S3 support across our entire toolchain – rattler, pixi, and rattler-build now support the most common cloud storage standard, thanks to contributions from our friends at QuantCo. This vendor-agnostic approach to distributing Conda packages represents a major step forward for the ecosystem, offering teams the flexibility to host packages on any S3-compatible provider (AWS, Cloudflare R2, Backblaze B2, Hetzner, and more) with built-in authentication and minimal vendor lock-in.
