Hello @refined-cartoon-38951, @melodic-airport-53682, @busy-ram-14533, @straight-cpu-66760 ! Welcome to the Pants community! 👖 I'm Huon, a volunteer maintainer of Pants. I work at a little company here in Australia, where I use Pants for mostly Python code (linting and testing, and packaging some docker images and AWS lambdas). If you want to take a moment to introduce yourself, what you do and why you’re interested in Pants we’d love to hear it! If you have any questions, make sure to head over to #C046T6T9U, where we all help each other!

Hi there Huon, nice to meet you! I'm a software engineer at Datadog, working in an organization that supports data scientists and engineers. I've been exploring Pants as an option for building an packaging python code in a monorepo, which is definitely not trivial without a tool like pants. As you might imagine, a lot of data science and engineering pipeline and orchestration code is python. I may pop over to general at some point to ask about the multiple lockfiles feature... I worked at Twitter years ago, so I have some firsthand pants experience, but it's been cool to see how much it's progressed in the last few years.
