Combining Nix with Terraform for better DevOps
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
In the near future we plan to create nixpkgs-haskell, in similar style of nixpkgs-python, to expose all GHC minor versions released in the last years.

Combining Nix with Terraform for better DevOps
In that light, we’re thrilled to announce the release of nixpkgs-terraform! This Nix project significantly enhances the flexibility and control of your Terraform environment, making its installation and management declarative and reproducible. This is largely thanks to Nix and its unique capabilities for precisely pinning packages to a version, ensuring its consistency across different environments. Forget about writing documentation on environment setup - just use one of the provided templates to bootstrap your Terraform installation and get the whole team on the same version with minimal manual intervention.
