See all moments

Every single time I consider using #nixos to set up a dev environment for one of my side projects, I give up after about one hour of getting more and more confused.

I really, really want to like nix. I would love to understand and use it for reproducible dev environments. I just haven’t found a way to get started without spending days to understand the fundamentals. In the meantime, an “apt install ” takes a few minutes tops and solves my immediate problem. Bummer.
