Way to get NVM working in CI/CD systems
- Node projects are far trickier if you want them to be able to share dependencies and depend on one another. We have found Yarn 4 (currently release candidate, not stable yet) in combination with https://github.com/madjam002/yarnpnp2nix to work best for this. Unfortunately we have to patch some package hashes of packages that contain platform-specific binaries (such as esbuild).

flox – Harness the Power of Nix
(I'm on the flox team) we'd love to support that and it's something we've talked about! We already support auto-generation for some languages like Rust because they have a lockfile (e.g. Cargo.lock), but it's a bit trickier for a requirements.txt. We hope at some point to contribute to/integrate with upstream efforts like dream2nix which have auto-generation as their goal

Minimal approach for python devel environment with flake
How about dream2nix? I like to use the nix way, but there are many third nix ways

yarnpnp2nix: More efficient way of packaging NodeJS applications
I'm not 100% sure, but looking at the docs [here](https://nix-community.github.io/dream2nix/subsystems/node.html#granular-pure-default) and the implementation [here](https://github.com/nix-community/dream2nix/tree/main/src/subsystems/nodejs/builders/granular-nodejs) it seems as it builds dependencies separately and symlinks (see `install-deps.py` those into a `node_modules` tree. I don't know much about Yarn's PNP (was doing more backend/devex last few years), but it sounds vaguely similar in that each package should be built once as a separate derivation and then symlinked to a big `node_modules`-as-a-symlink-tree derivation?

How do you build NodeJS project in Nix? 2022
How are you building your NodeJS project with Nix right now? Recently I spot a new abstraction, it looks good but I havn't tried it yet: https://github.com/nix-community/dream2nix

dream2nix - include a test run? (node project)
dream2nix is a great package, that makes a nix-derivation out of node project with the minimal flake

Why aren't systems like NixOS and GNU Guix more popular?
The DavHau/dream2nix project aims to be a generic solution for this issue by splitting the problem into specific stages, each of which can be configured individually (e.g., changing the level of purity)
