Show HN: Wetlands – a lightweight Python library for managing Conda environments

When building a plugin system for an application, avoiding dependency conflicts is critical. To address this, I created Wetlands – a lightweight Conda environment manager.

Wetlands not only simplifies the creation of isolated Conda environments with specific dependencies, but also allows you to run arbitrary Python code within those environments and retrieve the results. It uses the multiprocessing.connection and pickle modules for inter-process communication. Additionally, one can easily use shared memory between the environments, making data exchange more efficient.
