flox – Harness the Power of Nix
I wasn't aware of npt, thanks! We've also released https://github.com/flox/runix as a library to make it easier to wrap Nix.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing lanzaboote and runix you can also consider the following projects:
nixos-apple-silicon - Resources to install NixOS bare metal on Apple Silicon Macs
nix-bundle - Bundle Nix derivations to run anywhere!
sandkasten - Run untrusted code in an isolated environment
npt - Nix Package Tool. A (humble) successor to linux's apt, which makes life easier when using nix as a package manager.
