Pixie is a Rust-written package manager that installs conda and pip packages, compilers and CUDA toolchains as a single binary and produces precise pixie.lo log files for reproducible environments; Red Build (a Rust reimplementation of conda-build sitting on Redla) provides standardized build backends for Python, Rust, CMake and native CUDA. Demo shows automatic Rust->Python bindings rebuilds (edit, pixie reinstall, pixie run yields the new “hi” output) and claims speedups from ~2× to up to 100× faster in cached setups.
