NixOS: Declarative Builds and Deployments
I have step-by-step video guides (with accompanying git repos) for booting NixOS from zero on both Hetzner VPS instances[1] and bare metal Robot instances[2] with nixos-anywhere[3]. I used to use nixos-infect but now I'm 100% sold on nixos-anywhere.

An Overview of Nix in Practice
I think things are pretty good with nixos-anywhere[1] now. I made a video last month walking through the process of provisioning a VPS on Hetzner Cloud[2] if you want to see what the process looks like in real-time.

NixOS RFC 136 accepted: A plan to stabilize the new CLI and Flakes incrementally
> I can speak new instances of my environment into existence
You're not kidding. I used nixos-anywhere [1] for the first time the other day. You can point it to any linux host and it will partition, format, and supplant the target's existing OS with your nixOS config, all with a single command. Incredible.

Is it possible to morph Debian into NixOS?
There's a few scripts to replace the current os with NixOS: eg https://github.com/numtide/nixos-anywhere

NixOS: Declarative Builds and Deployments
NixOS is honestly the single most game-changing thing I've been introduced to in my last decade of experience in tech.
If you're interested in trying out NixOS I highly recommend either running it as an WSL2 VM[1] if you have a Windows machine or deploying it on a cheap VPS[2] to play around with.
I personally still use a Win11 desktop for compat with Adobe software and a few other bits and pieces, but I do all my serious work on a NixOS WSL2 VM.
