We are reaching the end of the year and it’s a good time to look back at the Packit highlights of this year. And it was a year!

We didn’t take a winter sleep, and at the very start of the year, we [announced](https://packit.dev/posts/specfile-introduction) the [Python library for parsing specfiles](https://github.com/packit/specfile). (Mainly written by [Nilola](https://github.com/nforro).) We had been successfully using it for some time and it was time to give the benefit to others. Thanks to that, there is now a [language Server for RPM spec files](https://github.com/dcermak/rpm-spec-language-server).

A lot usually happens in Brussels at the turn of January and February. And this time, we were present as well for the first time. [František](https://mastodonczech.cz/@lachmanfrantisek) (joined by [Evgeny](https://github.com/ukulekek)) presented on [CentOS Connect how Packit and Testing Farm can be beneficial to the CentOS community](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Eqb6IqG7Jek). Also, at this conference, there was a meetup of the [CentOS Integration SIG](https://sigs.centos.org/integration/) which [Matěj](https://fosstodon.org/@m4tt_314) and [František](https://mastodonczech.cz/@lachmanfrantisek) joined. The main event in Brussels is the [FOSDEM conference](https://fosdem.org/2024/), a big conference consisting of multiple so-called rooms. [František](https://mastodonczech.cz/@lachmanfrantisek) took [an interactive session](https://fosdem.org/2024/schedule/event/fosdem-2024-2881-upstream-and-downstream-best-friends-forever-/) in the Distribution room about the relationship between upstream and downstream.

During the whole year, we have made many improvements so more packages can use Packit’s Fedora release automation. Since many packages can benefit from Packit right away, we’ve introduced an [onboarding](https://packit.dev/docs/cli/dist-git/init) command capable of preparing a configuration file and also moving it to dist-git – either via pull requests or direct push.

For some time, Packit has been able to build VM images thanks to the prototype integration with the [Image Builder service](https://console.redhat.com/insights/image-builder). To promote this functionality and see if there is enough demand to continue development, [Maja](https://github.com/majamassarini) prepared a [blog post](https://developers.redhat.com/articles/2024/04/02/customize-aws-cloud-images-rhel-image-builder-and-packit#) for RedHat’s Developer Portal (also [available](https://packit.dev/posts/aws-and-image-builder) on Packit’s webpage).

And this is still not all for this year. We love collaborating on features and one such collaboration was/is with [Siteshwar Vashisht](https://fosstodon.org/@siteshwar) on integrating Packit with [OpenScanHub](https://openscanhub.dev/) so Packit users can run static analysis without much effort. Later during the year, we managed to properly report differential scans (so you can check only new findings.) If you are interested in this (or would like to know why one needs to care), look at Situ’s presentation on [DevConf.CZ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rcuIvAttWgY&pp=ygUdZGV2Y29uZiBzaXRlc2h3YXIgb3BlbnNjYW5odWI%3D) or [Cauldron](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lp7UECNg7qY) conference. You can also visit Brussels next year and [František](https://mastodonczech.cz/@lachmanfrantisek) and [Siteshwar Vashisht](https://fosstodon.org/@siteshwar) should present the integration on the [CentOS Connect](https://connect.centos.org/).

After all these big achievements and manysmall and big improvements, the [time has come to release Packit v1.0.0](https://packit.dev/posts/packit_1_0_0_action_required). Everything is now prepared, and we are giving people time to update their configuration files. (Since we love automation and pull request-based workflows, the affected users should have received a pull request with the changes required.)

So, quite a strong year, wasn’t it?
