Some key advantages include:
* A single home for all your Nix expressions, easily sharable and portable!
* Skip the setup, simply use the included [nix-shell](./shell.nix) or
* Skip the boilerplate, simply use the included [nix-shell](./shell.nix) or
[direnv][direnv] profile and get up and running with flakes right away.

## Use a Package from NUR
NUR is wired in from the start. For safety, nothing is added from it by default,
but you can easily pull packages from inside your configuration like so:
```nix
{ pkgs, ... }:
{
environment.systemPackages = with pkgs; [ nur.repos.<owner>.<package> ];
}
