Building in a clean environment

[psychemedia]

When building a jupyterlite environment, does it need to be in a clean environment, free of other jupyter extension packages etc?

If you are running in a new server environment, eg via a GitHub action, then you can probably assume no "contamination". But in the general case, do we need to install and run repo2jupyterlite in a clean Python environment, with any additional repo2jupyterlite dependencies installed? (Isnl'tthat the sort of thing hatch is good at?)
