  • Combining Nix with Terraform for better DevOps
    4 projects | dev.to | 19 Mar 2024
    At Stack Builders, our DevOps/SRE team uses nix-shells to install all of the necessary tooling to work on various Infrastructure-as-Code projects across the board. However, while nix-shells are useful for creating portable development environments, more fine-grained control over the different Terraform versions was lacking. We've taken inspiration from nixpkgs-python and nixpkgs-ruby, and we're grateful for the paths they've paved.
  • Using Haskell with devenv.sh
