The latest #flox release is here! 🚀 Here’s what’s new: - A revamped containerize command for exporting reproducible Flox environments to #OCI containers. - Improved support for #Jupyter extensions. Flox has always been the easiest way to run a Jupiter Notebook or Jupiter Lab server. Now it's even better! - A new runtime mode that gives you more flexibility to build and run software in the same reproducible environment. Build locally in `dev` mode with all the tools, libraries, and variables you need; test in CI and deploy to prod in `runtime` mode. All in the same environment! - An onboarding wizard, activation and performance improvements, and oodles of other goodies. Interested? Learn more: https://bit.ly/4fvE8XS

With Flox, the onboarding experience is completely different, whether you're starting in a new org, shifting to a new role within the same org, joining a new team, or kicking off a new project. Flox environments are declarative, portable, and reproducible. Unlike VMs or containers, they run on your native system, using OS- and CPU-optimized versions of binaries, libraries, and other dependencies. Flox environments built locally Just Work when shared with teammates, pushed to CI, or deployed in prod. Onboarding with Flox gets you working productively faster, whether you're doing problem analysis, collaborating with teammates, squashing bugs, and writing new code-or just knocking down issues + tickets. Intrigued? Learn more in our latest article: https://bit.ly/4hHpApK

Australian designer Bellroy is best known for its chic accessories. But Bellroy has a well-kept secret: #Nix , the combined package manager, environment manager, and build system that powers its continuously evolving software stack. Check out our latest Nix in the Wild article to learn how Bellroy uses Nix to: * Standardize local development, with portable, reproducible dev environments; * Simplify dependency management with its AWS Lambda deployments; * Enable reproducible, isolated builds that work the same locally, in CI/CD, and in production. Staff Engineer Jack Kelly says Nix has transformed Bellroy's approach to maintenance because "When [Nix] works, it stays working, so it's not like other systems where you have this ongoing maintenance [and] constantly having to touch it." Nix, he concludes, "makes hard things possible in a unique, truly valuable way." Read more about Bellroy's journey in the latest "Nix in the Wild" article! https://lnkd.in/e5VWzDeA

The Flox team is at DevOpsDays Warsaw this week! Come by and meet the team + get a look at what we've been working on.

We love open source tools like Flox ! It’s a super cool tool that lets you create consistent developer environments across different machines and to share those environments with your colleagues too. They recently wrote about how Flox can create a turn key RAG stack on your development machine using Weaviate and Verba with Ollama for inference. Check out the blog here: https://lnkd.in/gKjJMZsU
