I love Nix so much, because you can just super easily contain an entire development environment in one file. This stuff is genuinely

• More flexible than docker

• Easier than docker

• More reliable than docker

• Faster than docker

• More powerful than docker

Why isn't literally everyone using Nix?

@cbleslie Eh, I'd agree with them :p

Nix is an awful language.

But the Nix ideology? Holy moly.
