    Reproducible Data Science environments for R with Nix

    Project mention: Run Nix Based Environments in Kubernetes | news.ycombinator.com | 2025-11-16

    First, congrats on the release. I’ve looked at flox and devenv for nixifying our container builds. Our distribution of languages is about 40/30/20/10 of Python, F#, R and nodejs.

    A dilemma I’m facing is that the win from nix in terms of faster builds and smaller images would be largely from python and R images (where the average size is often 1Gi or larger). However, the developers that use Python or R are less likely to “get” the point of Nix and might have a steeper learning curve than F# developers (where the builds are quite efficient).

    That was the context, my question is, how’s the status with R and RStudio? I know there’s Rix[1] for managing R packages with Nix.
