  • nixpkgs

    Nix Packages collection & NixOS

    • As a second example, I'm still trying to wrap my head around how NixOS modules work. In the git module (chosen for relative simplicity), what I think is going on after about half an hour of googling is that modules define a function which gets called with several parameters:

  • bob

    Bob is a high-level build tool for multi-language projects. (by benchkram)

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.

  • nickel

    Better configuration for less

    • The question naturally becomes... when nickel support is added to nix, will bob still serve a purpose?
