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...
