An independent package manager that every hacker deserves
There is also nix-portable (https://github.com/DavHau/nix-portable), which is basically a drop-in replacement for normal nix that does everything required for no-root operation by itself when needed. Just put the single binary in your PATH and it's ready.

Docker's deleting Open Source images and here's what you need to know
level (/nix/store/)
Yes, for cache hits to happen it has to be this way as far as I remember.
There is a project called nix-portable though that I've seen some HPC users report success with:

The Determinate Nix Installer
Great work Graham and team, I'll be switching to it on OSX.
I wonder if you took a look at some of the modifications done by portable-nix (https://github.com/DavHau/nix-portable), most important ones being:
a) Allowing user to choose the location of the nix folder (for example $HOME/.nix) by using bwrap or proot
- is it possible to install the nix package manager with no root privleges?

Day 15 with silverblue, loving how rock stable the whole system feels! Exactly the kind of distro i've always wanted.
you can install it and forget about it. yeah the major downside is that you need to disable selinux unless you use nix portable.

I made a nix-portable integration for direnv for my friend who doesn't want to install nix on his machine 😈
Yeah sadly nix-portable doesn't support macOS because of missing kernel features. They are also thinking about docker fallback though: https://github.com/DavHau/nix-portable/issues/23 🤔😋

Introducing Riff, a Nix-based tool for automatically providing external dependencies to Rust projects
There is this: https://github.com/DavHau/nix-portable but I agree we need an official solution

We want to make Nix better
Not entirely true, there are many ways in which you can use a custom location and still take advantage of the binary cache. You can do it with chroot, file system namespaces, bind mounts and so on. There's also a nice user friendly tool that does exactly this [1].

Nix Development Container
This is cool! In a similar vein, it's worth mentioning nix-portable is a thing. Same idea of containerization except it avoids docker. https://github.com/DavHau/nix-portable

Use Notion as your CMS along with Next.js
During my search for deploying Lambdas via GitHub actions, I came across a tutorial that utilized ncc for converting TypeScript and bundling. While ncc is effective, I discovered esbuild, which proved to be significantly faster and perfectly suited to my requirements.

Build a Vite 5 backend integration with Flask
Unlike Webpack, the Vite DevServer only compiles files when they are requested. It leverages ES module imports, which allow JS files to import other files without needing to bundle them together during development. When one file changes, only that file needs to be re-compiled, and the rest can remain unchanged. Project files are compiled with Rollup.js. Third-party dependencies in node_modules are pre-compiled using the ultra-fast esbuild bundler for maximum speed, and they are cached until the dependency version changes. Vite also provides a client script for hot module reloading.

How to run TypeScript natively in Node.js with TSX
TSX is the newest and most improved version of our ts-node, using ESBuild to transpile TS files to JS very quickly. The most interesting part is that TSX was developed to be a complete replacement for Node, so you can actually use TSX as a TypeScript REPL, if you install it globally with npm i -g tsx, just run tsx in your terminal and you can write TSX natively. But what's even cooler is that you can load TSX for all TypeScript files using --loader tsx when you run your file. For example, let's say we have this file called index.ts:
