mise-en-place (or mise for short) is “the front-end to your dev env” - it installs & manages tools, executes tasks, and a whole lot more. I am in zero way affiliated with mise - I’m just a big fan and I use it basically all of my projects in some way or another. It would be great if mise were included in the list of “Available software at build time”.
Before posting, I searched the forums for “mise” and found some references tomise in the logs that people were pasting in their posts. For good measure, I had a conversation with the “Ask Netlify” chatbot (taken with a grain of salt) in which the response was affirmative:
Me: Is
mise-en-scene(akamise) available in netlify’s build image?
Bot: Yes, mise (formerly known as mise-en-place) is available and active in Netlify’s build images [Failed to reach dev server at path].
Finally, I pulled down some build images from dockerhub and poked around:
# netlify/build:noble
> docker run netlify/build:noble /bin/sh -c "mise --version"
2026.1.0 linux-arm64 (2026-01-07)
mise WARN mise version 2026.1.1 available
mise WARN To update, run mise self-update
# netlify/build:focal

# netlify/build:latest
> docker run netlify/build:latest /bin/sh -c "mise --version"
/bin/sh: 1: mise: not found
Thanks very much for your time!
