nix-update
-
Accessing contents of non-flake repo input to a flake?
You should instead use the regular fetchGit, fetchFromGitHub etc. fetchers in fairly vanilla code, and yes, that often means dealing with checksums in some form. If you truly just want to yeet the latest revision into place no matter what it is, there are ways to automate that still, such as berberman/nvfetcher, or Mic92/nix-update.
-
Will you move from Packer to Lazy ?
Yes, however one downside is that, afaik, the inputs are downloaded eagerly, not lazily. Alternatively there are things like nix-update and nvfetcher.

How easy would it be to make Nix packages similar to -git packages of the AUR?
or https://github.com/Mic92/nix-update

Beat way to update an outdated package?
You can also use https://github.com/Mic92/nix-update with a nixpkgs git clone.

NixOS 21.05 Released
I run [nix-update](https://github.com/Mic92/nix-update/) to update stuff. If you want to package something new, first identify the programming language/buildsystem the project is using and than look for a similar project in nixpkgs.

What does the minimal version of NixOS consist of?
I somewhere saw this project being mentioned: https://github.com/svanderburg/nix-processmgmt

Avoiding Complexity with Systemd
That's nice and it showcases how Nix can create a declarative process management atop a script-based imperative manager. How is your experience with it? Also note that there's https://github.com/svanderburg/nix-processmgmt, a manager agnostic processes management framework supporting s6 among others, but your way seems a bit more straightforward.
-
is it possible to use nix on a non-systemd distro like void or artix?
There's a project still being developed: https://github.com/svanderburg/nix-processmgmt my understanding is that if home-manager would use it (I don't know if there is even plan to do that, it's not the same author), it would be able to work without needing systemd.
