Rok Garbas

You’ve learned Nix and you see the power 👉 Deterministic builds, reproducibility, no more “works on my machine.”

@rok-garbas.bsky.social will show you how to bring Nix into your team’s workflow without asking anyone to learn Nix.

Join us! buff.ly/KYMiX4N

Listening from the sky

You know Nix. Your team doesn't. You've tried the pitch. They went back to Docker.

Giving a workshop at PlanetNix: Give your team Flox. They get reproducible envs. You keep your flakes. Everyone wins.

Some will learn Nix eventually. Some won't. Both fine.

Wispr Flow just showed me what I said most in 2025.

Go-to phrase: "Let's commit the changes"
In Ghostty: "Please review and commit"

I was hoping it would say "talking to my wife."

Nope. Just git.

PlanetNix 2026 PlanetNix 2026 - A two-day conference for Nix builders. March 5-6, 2026 in Pasadena, CA. Join developers, contributors, and teams using Nix in production for talks, workshops, and hands-on learning.

~12 hours for PlanetNix CFP.

If you use Nix you probably hate talking about it. Never bring it up at work. Definitely don't submit a talk.

Unless...?

March 5-6 in Pasadena, co-located with SCaLE. Good conversations, great burritos (it's LA).

Flox, Nix, and Reproducible Software Systems with Michael Stahnke - Software Engineering Daily Modern software development is more complex than ever. Teams work across different operating systems, chip architectures, and cloud environments, each with its own dependency quirks and version mismat...

Michael Stahnke is the VP of Engineering at @flox.dev. He joins @kball.llc to talk about Flox, building on top of Nix, software security, and much more.

Internet, please be kind, this is the first time for me 😊

... and yes, let's learn hashtag#Flox and hashtag#Nix together

I had to skip last year's NixCon last moment, but not skipping it this year :)

We recently launched something big at Flox: Build & Publish 🎉

What makes Nix stick?

Ron Efroni shares how the Nix community became one of the most helpful and passionate in open source.

We go deeper in Nix in the Wild, where devs share how they’re using Nix in real-world projects.

Sometimes writing code isn’t the hardest part.
It’s dealing with everything *around* it.

❌ Different Node/Python versions.
❌ Piles of dependencies.
❌ READMEs that *almost* work (but don’t).

With Flox, you can set up environments in seconds.

It is not "or" its "and/or" 😆

A puppet pro decides to learn nix Configuration management is nothing new for Michael Stahnke. In this talk, he’ll be looking at Nix, the functional package manager (and a bit of NixOS) …

Nix: structuring Flakes with Blueprint I’m sitting here, in an Airbnb in Brussels, after a long weekend of talking tech and drinking beer during my first FOSSDEM. Seems like as good a time as any then to try and restart my regular posting ...

Brian wrote a post on blueprint: bmcgee.ie/posts/2025/0...

The project is coming along quite nicely.

In the real world, Flox and #containers neatly 🧩 complement one another.

The real magic ✨ lies in using Flox inside containers to fetch & manage runtime dependencies dynamically.

This keeps images minimal 📦 + guarantees reproducibility 🔁. Learn more:

We love hearing stories on how simple it is to streamline your workflows and explore Nix via Flox ++ the positive experience with our friends over at Ghostty ❤️

Homebrew migration guide Flox is an environment and package manager all in one. Using Flox, you can create discrete environments containing packages from the Flox Catalog. Flox can replace Homebrew entirely, or they can be used together. This guide explains how to introduce Flox into environments where Homebrew is currently being used, either as a replacement or an addition. It introduces new concepts and proposes a basic procedure for mapping packages.

Remember that experiment of using @flox.dev to replace Homebrew? Now it's official. flox.dev/docs/tutoria...
