declarative build #703
Description
Building this project requires a variety of external tools. We should declare these dependencies in a document and use a tool that can build the project based on that document. I think pixi is the right choice, but i'm up for alternatives.

Based on our experience,
mesonis more widely used in the Python community because it doesn't require a lot of dependencies. Pixi, on the other hand, depends on Rust which may complicate its deployment.mesonas a Python build backend.d-v-b commentedon Mar 17, 2025
pixi would be used for setting up a development environment (and it could specify meson as a dev dependency), not for deployment
