# Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

||
## Why we do not add your favorite package
|
||
|
||
We have lots of users with different packages they want to use.

|
||
[Choose the image](selecting.md), that is closest to your needs and feel free to [add your package on top of our images](recipes.md#using-mamba-install-recommended-or-pip-install-in-a-child-docker-image).
