Modverse #42: Magic is the best way to build with MAX and Mojo
We’re excited to announce that Magic 🪄 is now the official package and virtual environment manager for MAX and Mojo projects. Going forward, we recommend you manage your MAX and Mojo installations using the magic CLI. It brings a number of improvements specific to Modular pipelines and virtual environments, and we will be adding new features for managing, developing, and deploying pipelines to future magic releases.

Modverse #41
The Mojo Community Meeting has been renamed to the MAX + Mojo Community Meeting. We explained how we combined Mojo and MAX, and updated the license for both to ensure you can be confident building free (and open source) technologies, as well as using Mojo and MAX for your own commercial projects.

Modverse #40
Last week we began alpha testing our new magic CLI for installing Mojo and MAX through the Conda ecosystem. It allows you to pin Mojo/MAX to different versions, and add Python dependencies so you can reliably share your Mojo and MAX projects. If you want to try it out before release, you can find the doc for installing it here.

The 24.4 release introduced GGUF support and quantisation for models such as Llama3 and many new features for Mojo. With that behind us Modular is now working hard towards the next release. To try out the new features press the Nightly tab on the MAX installation guide. There's an active community in the #nightly Discord channel to discuss the upcoming features with, and Modular staff are there to answer questions and respond to your feedback!

Modverse #37
We hosted the third Mojo Community Meeting this week, with great demonstrations from the community on constraints and the Mojo HTTP serving library lightbug. We also previewed our upcoming AI pipeline serving feature with llama3, using a GUI to interact with it. And ended by answering community questions on async, and when Python will be able to call Mojo.

This week we held the first ever Mojo community meeting!

This week we hosted a livestream with many good questions from the community. People were most interested in macOS support for MAX, and GPU support. These are both top priority at Modular so stay tuned! The standard library team were happy to announce that we've had 250 OSS contributions since open sourcing, we continue to be impressed and motivated by our active community!
