The topic of dependencies management is coming back and again. nix and nixpkgs being a rich repository, provides a convenient way to manage both project dependencies and related tooling in a reproducible way. This is something I’m finding more and more useful as a fundamental development tool. nix is quite complex and some exploration is needed to wrap your head around it. In this post, I’m going through most basic use cases as well as describe some basics of nix language itself - mainly ...| twdev.blog

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 schedule 😂. That being said, given that my physical, mental and spiritual battery is running low 😫, I’m going to keep this one simple and to the point. Much like the topic of today’s blog post 😉.| Brian McGee

In this series I'll be documenting my journey learning Nix and this first installment is more of a prequel. A common complaint when learning Nix is that the documentation "is not good", and I think what people mean by that is that the documentation is spread across several sources which may or may not be easy to find, or that there is no explanation at all in official documentation.

Recently I have begun migrating my workstation and laptop from Gentoo to NixOS. There are a great deal of tradeoffs between the two operating systems. Before going into the details, consider where I’m coming from and why I moved away from Gentoo below. Why was I running Gentoo on workstations??

Twitter is not at its best. Developers are looking for an alternative as many others. Mastodon with its decentralized and feel of ownership is raising in popularity.

This is the story of how I moved my Mastodon instance to NixOS| gianarb.it
