The derivation that runs when we install pkgs.nginx can be found here. Our version will do the same things, but with a few extra items in configureFlags.
This is called dependency hell, and it's one of the problems Nix was designed to solve. Whereas a standard package manager might install Vim to /usr/bin/vim, nix will install it to a directory that looks like this:
You can set up and use a programming language that is not officially supported by Replit, such as Racket (nixpkgs.racket), Prolog (nixpkgs.swiProlog), or even COBOL (nixpkgs.gnu-cobol).
Instead of NGINX, you could use Apache, and instead of Postgres, you could try MySQL or even a NoSQL database like MongoDB. And of course, you can use just about any mainstream programming language to write your web application code instead of Python, such as JavaScript, Ruby or Java.

We can get the popular MS-DOS emulator DOSBox working in a Nix repl by just installing the right package and running it. From there, we can run any DOS program and use it in our repl's VNC window.
What if we want to host more than just a Flask app? Let's consider an e-commerce site at www.example.com. The main store application is powered by Flask, but our marketing department would like to start a blog at www.example.com/blog. We could build blogging functionality into our e-commerce site, but it would be much quicker and easier to use a separate application, such as Wordpress or Ghost.
