Welcome to Mamba’s documentation

Mamba is a fast, robust, and cross-platform package manager.

It runs on Windows, OS X and Linux (ARM64 and PPC64LE included) and is fully compatible with conda packages and supports most of conda’s commands.

Mamba is a framework with several components:

• libmamba: a C++ library of the domain, exposing low-level and high-level APIs
• mamba: a ELF as a drop-in replacement for conda, built on top of libmamba
• micromamba: the statically linked version of mamba
• libmambapy: python bindings of libmamba

Note

In this documentation, Mamba will refer to all flavors while flavor-specific details will mention mamba, micromamba or libmamba.

Note

micromamba is especially well fitted for the CI use-case but not limited to that!

You can try Mamba now by visiting the installation formamba or micromamba
