Try pixi! Pixi is a much more sane way for building with conda + pypi packages in a single tool that makes this so much easier for torch development, regardless if you get the condaforge or pypi builds of pytorch. https://pixi.sh/latest/

I don't see the advantage ?

In the comparative table, they claim that conda doesn't support:

* lock file: which is false, you can freeze your environment

* task runner: I don't need my package manager to be a task runner

* project management: You can do 1 env per project ? I don't see the problem here...

So no, please, just use conda/mamba and conda-forge.
