| Integrations | The CI/CD guide gives examples for GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, CircleCI, Travis CI, Azure Pipelines, Jenkins, Docker, and tox. | Conda can work with pip in an active conda environment, though the documentation notes unavoidable compatibility limits between pip and conda packages. |
| Purpose | build is a Python packaging frontend that reads pyproject.toml and invokes build backends to create distribution packages. | Conda provides package, dependency, and environment management for any language. |
