Hi ManiSkill Developers,

Thank you for your amazing work on ManiSkill! This tool has been incredibly helpful for robotics simulation and training.

I am a beginner in Python and use conda environments frequently for managing dependencies and isolating my projects. While the current pip-based installation method works well, I believe adding support for conda installation could provide significant benefits, including:

  1. Beginner-friendliness: conda simplifies dependency management and avoids many common installation issues, especially for users less familiar with Python.
  2. Improved compatibility: Precompiled packages in conda reduce the chances of dependency conflicts or system compatibility issues.
  3. Wider adoption: Many researchers and students in the robotics and machine learning community rely on conda for managing environments.

Would it be possible to consider adding a conda installation method for ManiSkill in the future? For example, providing a Conda Forge recipe or maintaining a channel with the necessary builds.

Thank you for considering this suggestion, and I look forward to ManiSkill's future development!

Best regards,
Yucheng Song
