CEP 48, which brings conditionals and extras to your @conda.org dependencies, is now accepted! This means you will soon be able to type things like `typing-extensions[when='python<=3.10']` and `scipy[extras=test]` 🚀 github.com/conda/ceps/b...

Conda packages have extras now. Optional dependency groups you declare and then consume, via v3 repodata. Plus when conditions and variant flags.

conda.orgBridging conda and PyPI ecosystems: Install PyPI packages with conda install | conda.orgconda-pypi beta enables conda CLI to install pure Python packages from PyPI natively and alongside conda packages in a single dependency solve, without a separate pip step

1 July

We’ve been working on improving the experience for conda users who need packages from both conda and PyPI, and we’re excited to invite you to try it! 🚀 You can now opt into the conda-pypi beta, which enables conda to discover, install, and manage Python packages from PyPI natively: buff.ly/pKKBzOz

Special thanks to @patchworkofregrets.bsky.social for creating this adorable platypus logo for conda-pypi. We love it! 🥹

buff.lyBuilding a Better conda CLI: A Vision | conda.orgA vision for the conda CLI in 2026: making conda fast, trusted, and delightful.

21 Apr

This is the year conda CLI gets a glow-up! 💅 Faster operations, clear progress, errors that actually help you fix things, better integration with PyPI, and new environment workflows. Conda maintainer Dan Yeaw laid it all out in our latest blog post 👉️

conda.orgSharded repodata in conda (beta): an order of magnitude faster | conda.orgConda fetches repodata much more quickly. Learn how we did it and who helped along the way.

Congratulations to our friends at Anaconda for shipping CEP-16 (sharded repodata). If you use conda-forge from anaconda.org servers, pixi & rattler-build got magically a lot faster! conda.org/blog/sharde...

Anaconda.org and conda adopt sharded repodata! 🚀 CEP 16, introduced by @prefix.dev, splits the massive repodata files into per-project shards. This allows clients to only fetch what they need, resulting in significant speedups! Instructions to opt-in and benchmarks at buff.ly/XUSXp9h

anaconda.orgAnaconda.orgA community-led collection of recipes, build infrastructure, and distributions for the conda package manager.

As part of this beta, shards, which were already available in the prefix.dev channels, are now served by anaconda.org for @conda-forge.org channel. ✦ Conda users can now opt in to see 10x speedups when using conda-forge. ✦ Pixi and rattler-build already support this, so they benefit immediately!

This work brings CEP 16 to conda and shows what collaboration across the community can achieve. Huge thanks to @conda-forge.org, @prefix.dev @quansight.com @quantstack.bsky.social and @anacondainc.bsky.social for making this possible. ❤️
