In this tutorial, we are going to package [GNU hello](https://gnu.org/s/hello), a traditional example for build systems, in order to get started
with dream2nix and its [module system ](./modules.md).

@ -15,7 +15,7 @@ We start by creating a new git repository with the following two files:
The package is declared by calling `dream2nix.lib.evalModules` with the definitions in `hello.nix`, nixpkgs
and a helper module to let dream2nix know about your directory layout.
- `hello.nix` declares a dream2nix module that imports [mkDerivation](./reference/mkDerivation/index.md) and
- `hello.nix` declares a dream2nix module that imports [mkDerivation](../reference/mkDerivation/index.md) and
uses that to build GNU hello.

1. Import dream2nix and tell nix to use whatever version of nixpkgs dream2nix declares. You can use other versions, but this it what we run our automated tests with.
2. Define a helper function that allows us to reduce boilerplate and still support all of of the listed systems for our package.
3. Create our package, called `hello` here, by *evaluating* the given dream2nix [modules](./modules.md).

4. Pass the given instance of nixpkgs to build our package with as a *module argument*.
5. Include our package definition from `hello.nix`. See below for its contents!
6. Define relative paths to aid dream2nix to find lock files and so on during *evaluation time*. These settings should work for repos containing multiple python projects as simpler ones.

1. Define a function, taking our *module arguments* and returning a *module*.
Inputs include `dream2nix`, a reference to package itself in `config`, and the nixpkgs library in `lib`.
2. Import the [`mkDerivation`](./reference/mkDerivation/index.md) module.
2. Import the [`mkDerivation`](../reference/mkDerivation/index.md) module.
3. Define `name` and `version` of the package. Unlike most other options, those are not namespaced and defined in dream2nix `core` module.
4. Define a function that returns **dep**endencie**s** as *module options* from the given *package sets*.
`hello` here needs a compiler already in the defaults of `mkDerivation`, we don't need `deps` here but include it for demonstration purposes.

Once you have imported a module, this module will make ecosystem-dependent functions, such as [`mkDerivation`](./reference/mkDerivation/index.md) or [`buildPythonPackage`](./reference/buildPythonPackage/index.md), available to your package modules.
