Transcript

1. EuroScipy 2017 lightning talk @pypelson
2. Comprehensive channel of conda binaries (both python & non-python packages) Open development model (you can add new packages, or contribute improvements to existing ones) What is conda-forge?
3. A GitHub organisation, with: • 3000 repos ◦ CI for each platform builds & uploads to anaconda.org • 500+ maintainers A conda channel with: • 250GB of packages • >1M python downloads conda-forge by numbers
4. https://conda-forge.org @condaforge
5. Nothing beats pip for pure python packages Waiting on CI to run is often tiresome (but at least it beats having to run the builds by hand on each platform) Requires a conda installation (but you’re already using that, right?) Why not?
