I think for the goal of "produce Java, dotnet, php packages for different platforms", this as such is something Nix isn't geared towards.
Nix essentially relies on all its packages ending up under /nix/store. -- I'm not sure how easy it is to then take native shared libraries from /nix/store, and then distribute these to systems which don't have /nix/store.
Whereas, say, applications could be bundled using nix bundle. https://nixos.org/manual/nix/unstable/command-ref/new-cli/ni...
That said, I think Nix could still otherwise make a useful addition to the project. Something like https://devenv.sh/ would make setting up a development environment (especially for multiple languages) much easier.
