Unified configuration for systems, packages, modules, shells, templates, and more with Nix Flakes. (by snowfallorg)

WorkOS
The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
For me, https://search.nixos.org/ is a better aid than the wiki. Often the right keyword in the NixOS packages or modules search will lead me right to the obvious and simple answer that I couldn't find elsewhere.
I'm really excited by Jake Hamilton's work on snowfall and related stuff -- there are a few of these around (Haumea and Colmena, I think, haven't read much about them) but I think this is the sort of thing that would -- once fully ripened -- help significantly in terms of organizing an approach. Right now Nix feels a bit like Ruby before Rails -- a great language with a lot of potential but not a lot of focus. I think a thoroughly documented, worked example of how to build and maintain multi-system architecture will help a lot in guiding people through the mess of docs.
