  • Preparing Vagrant NixBox.
    1 project | /r/NixOS | 13 Mar 2022
    I am learning NixOS, and its packaging system and I would say the learning curve is steep. My work is based on this repo https://github.com/nix-community/nixbox. I want to install some common development environments such as golang, rust, zig. I see that it provides a place holder to add my custom configurations. How should I go about adding configuration for above tooling. I just need a single example that i can follow. For example how to pull the packages, I to configure directories, and environment variables etc. Thank you in advance for any help.

  • Virter: a "Docker for VMs"

    In my experience, I wanted to like vagrant-libvirt but it felt too bolted-on, and tons of things in the ecosystem assume VirtualBox, so you're kinda swimming against the current alone.
