This is a short demonstration of how you can install python directly into a pixi project.

It shows how fast it can be and what the commands are to work with that python.

The key commands used in the demo are:

pixi init # Intializes a project
pixi add # Adds a dependency to the project
pixi run # Runs a command in the environment of the project

While this site doesn't offer GIF conversion at the moment, you can still do it yourself with the help of asciinema GIF generator utility - agg.

Once you have it installed run the following command to create GIF file:

Or, if you already downloaded the recording file:
