  Using Mamba-forge for Python environment management

• staged-recipes

  A place to submit conda recipes before they become fully fledged conda-forge feedstocks

  

It seems like you're confusing/conflating mamba and the conda-forge package repository. conda-forge is IMO the more important thing to recommend---mamba AFAIK just provides better speed/QOL.

  The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  A conda-forge distribution.

  

Just to further clarify: you don't need mamba to avoid the Anaconda distribution. The place you get mambaforge also supplies (and originally supplied) miniforge, which is miniconda with conda-forge set as the default channel. All the *forge installers do in this regard is automatically set conda-forge as the default (and only) channel, which is something one can do manually with miniconda.
