DESCRIPTION:Until very recently\, producing and using reproducible scientif
 ic software environments required advanced knowledge and a strict adherenc
 e to best practices (e.g. DOI: 10.25080/majora-212e5952-028). Now\, with t
 he advent of modern tooling with lockfile-first workflows (i.e. Pixi and u
 v)\, and the emergence of lockfile standards across scientific open source
 \, applications can be made reproducible at the digest level through tooli
 ng decisions. As this technology and practices become increasingly common 
 there is an opportunity to define common best practices around lockfile ba
 sed software development that can further reduce developer overhead and ma
 intenance burden. This Birds of a Feather panel will focus on how experien
 ced developers are leveraging lockfiles across software development\, appl
 ications\, and deployment while providing best practices and practical rec
 ommendations\, while also highlighting continuing challenges and opportuni
 ties for improvement.
