Question about managing development environments in NixOS

• shells.nix

  1 1 6.7 Nix

  My personal dev envs using nix

• devenv

  88 3,359 9.8 Nix

  Fast, Declarative, Reproducible, and Composable Developer Environments

  

  However, https://devenv.sh has a much better and cleaner underlying design, as well as easier UX/DX, and has been gaining feature at high-speed, so I'm working on migrating to it to simplify the maintenance.

• nixos-config

  15 1,751 8.3 Nix

  My NixOS configurations.

  I have a NixOS dev environment in a VM which I built based on https://github.com/mitchellh/nixos-config. Similar to that setup, I use Flakes for my main configuration, and use home-manager to install + configure dev tools that I want available across multiple projects

• devbox

  47 7,349 9.7 Go

  Instant, easy, and predictable development environments

  

  For individual project, I've used Devbox to quickly setup development shells, or install project specific packages and runtimes. It's a bit lighter weight then Flakes if you want to set up a bunch of projects (Disclosure: I work on the team behind Devbox).
