  • lorri integrates with direnv. When you enter a directory with a Nix shell and lorri+direnv enabled, direnv automatically changes the environment to the one declared by (for example) shell.nix. lorri builds this environment in the background; without this, it sometimes takes a while before the environment is changed. Nix Flakes can also be configured to integrate with direnv, and because the caching is better with Flakes than it was before, I personally don’t find it necessary to use lorri when using Flakes.
