Nix journey part 0: Learning and reference materials
It’s super vague. The only way I could find to understand how to create a flake (for https://mimoo.github.io/nixbyexample/) was trial and error and diving into the nix codebase.
- Zero to Nix, an unofficial, opinionated, gentle introduction to Nix
- nixos vscode rust analyzer cannot read rust-src in /nix/store because it requires root permissions

Devenv.sh: Fast and reproducible developer environments using Nix
This is great! After spending some time with nix and writing https://mimoo.github.io/nixbyexample/ I figured it’s too consuming and hard to manage nix yourself. These usable user-facing tools are really what nix needs to go to the next level

Why is the documentation... nowhere to be found?!
For me, https://search.nixos.org/ is a better aid than the wiki. Often the right keyword in the NixOS packages or modules search will lead me right to the obvious and simple answer that I couldn't find elsewhere.

Nix packages security, safety, and privacy
Does https://search.nixos.org/ pull from nixpkgs, the Nix User Repository, or both?

What is the difference between:
Just go to search.nixos.org, open the option you would like to see more of, and click on the link behind "Declared in".

Where to find SAR in the package manager?
I've done a nix-env query, and checked in https://search.nixos.org but can't seem to find any SAR package, nor any google search that gave any hints to see if it might be part of another system utility package...

My First Impressions of Nix
If you want to install a package, search for it at https://search.nixos.org

Thinking about to switch from Fedora Sliverblue to NixOS with following use case…
Idk about ec_sys, I couldn't find it on search.nixos.org, but since it's a kernel module it might just come with the kernel idk.

How do you quickly browse the source of a flake input
I rarely think to look at flakes by their source, actually. I have a Nixpkgs clone that I jump into for anything super ad-hoc but most of the time I'm just doing REPL, :lf ./. and mashing tab-completion. That's usually to make sure the thing I'm after exists in one of the large package sets like node, vimPlugins, or similar, and that I got the name right - which could probably be answered just as easily with https://search.nixos.org/ .
