CONDA
COMMUNITY
A community supporting a language-agnostic, multi-platform package management ecosystem for projects of any size and complexity.
What is conda?
Initially started as a multi-platform package management tool, the term "conda" has since evolved to encompass an entire open-source packaging ecosystem and philosophy. This ecosystem is supported by many organizations who all share the common goal of providing easier access to programming tools and libraries.
Any language
Our packaging ecosystem allows you to manage applications and libraries written in any language, like C, C++, Java, Rust, or Go.
Any platform
This packaging ecosystem supports all major platforms and architectures: macOS, Windows, Linux, Intel/AMD, ARM, PowerPC, Apple Silicon... you name it.
Vibrant community
This ecosystem also includes tools and projects from many organizations, like conda, conda-forge, mamba and conda-incubator.
