Ask HN: Best Alternative to Homebrew in 2021?
Regarding GUI applications: you're probably talking about the Nixpkgs repository, rather than the Nix tool itself.
I use the following Nix function to install GUI applications https://github.com/cmacrae/.nixpkgs/blob/d4b51eb414b0edaffae...
It doesn't work for everything, but I use it at the moment for Amethyst, DBeaver, DockerDesktop, Emacs, Firefox, iTerm2, Postman, Slack and VNCViewer.

Ask HN: Best Alternative to Homebrew in 2021?
Fight through it for another couple of weekends - the Stockholm syndrome feels sooo gooooood!
I found it much more helpful to find people's own Nix setups and learn from them, by the way. Mine is at https://github.com/Smaug123/nix-dotfiles - like all such things, it's a WIP, and I'm definitely still a noob, but bits of it may be able to help.
What are some alternatives?
homebrew-cask-versions - 💀 Alternate versions of Casks (deprecated)
opensource.how - Open-source etiquette
HomeBrew - 🍺 The missing package manager for macOS (or Linux)
arkade - Open Source Marketplace For Developer Tools
homebrew-core - 🍻 Default formulae for the missing package manager for macOS (or Linux)
asdf - Extendable version manager with support for Ruby, Node.js, Elixir, Erlang & more
homebrew-graph - Creates a dependency graph of Homebrew formulae.
