< a href = "https://nix-community.github.io/home-manager" > home-manager< / a > , and < a href = "https://github.com/numtide/devshell" > devshell< / a > , and offering useful

< p > NixOS provides an amazing abstraction to manage our environment, but that new
2021-02-15 03:36:17 +03:00
power can sometimes bring feelings of overwhelm and confusion. Having a turing
2021-02-20 08:44:13 +03:00
complete system can easily lead to unlimited complexity if we do it wrong.
Instead, we should have a community consensus on how to manage a NixOS system.< / p >
