Crate rattler

Rattler is an experimental library and executable to work with Conda environments. Conda is a cross-platform open-source package management system and environment management system.

Conda is originally written in Python and has evolved a lot since it was first conceived. Rattler is an attempt at reimplementing a lot of the machinery supporting Conda but making it available to a wider range of languages. The goal is to be able to integrate the Conda ecosystem in a wide variaty of tools that do not rely on Python. Rust has excellent support for interfacing with many other languages (WASM, Javascript, Python, C, etc) and is therefore a good candidate for a reimplementation.
