flox – Harness the Power of Nix
(I'm on the flox team) we'd love to support that and it's something we've talked about! We already support auto-generation for some languages like Rust because they have a lockfile (e.g. Cargo.lock), but it's a bit trickier for a requirements.txt. We hope at some point to contribute to/integrate with upstream efforts like dream2nix which have auto-generation as their goal

yarnpnp2nix: More efficient way of packaging NodeJS applications
I'm not 100% sure, but looking at the docs [here](https://nix-community.github.io/dream2nix/subsystems/node.html#granular-pure-default) and the implementation [here](https://github.com/nix-community/dream2nix/tree/main/src/subsystems/nodejs/builders/granular-nodejs) it seems as it builds dependencies separately and symlinks (see `install-deps.py` those into a `node_modules` tree. I don't know much about Yarn's PNP (was doing more backend/devex last few years), but it sounds vaguely similar in that each package should be built once as a separate derivation and then symlinked to a big `node_modules`-as-a-symlink-tree derivation?

How do you build NodeJS project in Nix? 2022
How are you building your NodeJS project with Nix right now? Recently I spot a new abstraction, it looks good but I havn't tried it yet: https://github.com/nix-community/dream2nix

dream2nix - include a test run? (node project)
dream2nix is a great package, that makes a nix-derivation out of node project with the minimal flake

Why aren't systems like NixOS and GNU Guix more popular?
The DavHau/dream2nix project aims to be a generic solution for this issue by splitting the problem into specific stages, each of which can be configured individually (e.g., changing the level of purity)

How do I actually update home-manager?
$ home-manager --version 23.05 $ nix-channel --add https://github.com/nix-community/home-manager/archive/release-23.11.tar.gz home-manager $ nix-channel --update $ nix-shell '' -A install [...] All done! The home-manager tool should now be installed and you can edit /home/MY-USERNAME/.config/home-manager/home.nix to configure Home Manager. Run 'man home-configuration.nix' to see all available options. $ home-manager --version 23.05

Possible to use KDE plugins on nixos?
Unfortunately until we find more volunteers in this area, it is hard to see status quo changing. See also https://github.com/nix-community/home-manager/issues/607 and this ongoing project https://github.com/pjones/plasma-manager

An Overview of Nix in Practice
> Channels are, AFAIU, a reference to some point-in-time/commit/version of nixpkgs
It's not specifically nixpkgs, but any Nix code generally.
Per the Nix manual[0]:
> Channels are a mechanism for referencing remote Nix expressions and conveniently retrieving their latest version.
e.g. home-manager's suggested channel is just the github tarball for the relevant branch[1]:
nix-channel --add https://github.com/nix-community/home-manager/archive/master.tar.gz home-manager

Need help on home manager neovim config
I'm using flakes and home manager and not really sure how to go about managing my neovim configuration. I've read through some other posts, github issues, and various articles trying to suss out a good way to do this. Reading through other people's configs and posts was somewhat helpful but there is a lot going on I don't understand and everyone's examples I've seen vary wildly.

I want to like NixOS but... I can't and I need some help
I can't answer all your questions, but home-manager does have a dconf module that would probably be better to use than that external tool. Everything inside the options block are the things you can pass to the dconf module.
What are some alternatives?
