You may already be familiar with conda-forge, you may have contributed a recipe, you may not know what conda-forge is or anything else in-between. This talk is for everyone. In this informative talk we will cover a handful of things: the current statistics and metrics for conda-forge; a brief history of conda-forge including why it exists in the first place; all of the different components of conda-forge; and why you might want to get involved and how to do so. There’s really no required knowledge for this talk, though some familiarity with using conda and conda-build will help.
