What is the current recommended documentation when starting out with NixOs?
All the resources mentioned in other comments are pretty good, but mostly they are unofficial. The official NixOS wiki is very outdated and unmaintained. You will have better luck reading other people’s configurations, nixpkgs source code and GitHub issues. For the nix language the official wiki is a nice reference https://nixos.org/manual/nix/stable/language/index.html. This configuration is a great starting point https://github.com/Misterio77/nix-config for learning by example. It covers most of what you may need, although bootstrapping your own config is quite rough. You may want to take a look at https://github.com/Misterio77/nix-starter-configs. It’s very basic and should be simple to understand and improve.

My First Impressions of Nix
Yes. E.g. some guy's config with 6 different machines[1]: multiple desktops, laptops, servers, a Raspberry Pi, and a VPS. That's a rather advanced use of Nix for configuration, but definitely shows what it's capable of.

Impermanence, wipe root on boot, possible?
I reuse the same btrfs logic on all my computers, including a RPi: https://github.com/Misterio77/nix-config/blob/main/hosts/common/btrfs-optin-persistence.nix
- Who's here runs NixOS with opt in state?

My First Impressions of Nix
not sure how approachable it might be, but i like to think the documentation isn't too bad for my personal stuff.
definitely nothing so well thought out as a tutorial, but i try to describe the structure & implementation of my approach + cross-link to relevant tools that i incorporate.
