How do I get the sha256 for a package to use in fetchFromGithub command ?
you can use nurl to get the hash of fetchers, which uses nix flake prefetch github:/ for github urls under the hood, you can use that too if you don't mind typing a little more

nix-init - Generate Nix packages from URLs with hash prefetching, dependency inference, license detection, and more
All other fetchers supported by nurl are also supported, you just have to specify the tags manually

Looks neat! Maybe you could add a little part to the README about what differentiates this from things like nix-prefetch.

Packaging software with Nix
Alternatively, there are also some command-line tools that can prefetch a file for you. They will fetch the file, put it in the Nix store, and print out the hash to the console. The nix-prefetch-url command comes installed in a standard Nix environment, including Replit repls. Both nix-prefetch-git and nix-prefetch-github are in Nixpkgs (so they can be installed easily using replit.nix) and work similarly. For more advanced uses, consider using nix-prefetch, also in Nixpkgs, which can prefetch using any Nix fetcher.
