Docker's deleting Open Source images and here's what you need to know
You might be interested in Devbox (http://jetpack.io/devbox)! We built Devbox because we were frustrated with our Docker based dev environments, and our goal is to provide the power of Nix with a more accessible interface (similar to yarn or other package managers).
We're open source and rapidly adding features, you can check us out on Github at https://github.com/jetpack-io/devbox

Question about managing development environments in NixOS
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).
-
Ask HN: What have you built more than twice and wish someone had built for you?
Tools like Devbox: https://github.com/jetpack-io/devbox are making this way easier. Devbox is powered by nix, but it hides all of the complexity and makes it easier to use.

Setting up my new laptop: Nix style
Depending on your use case, devbox (https://github.com/jetpack-io/devbox) could be what you're looking for. It is powered by Nix, but abstracts the nix language away, so that you can use it like a "regular" package manager.
Currently it works on a "per-project" basis, but we're planning to add support to use it as your primary package manager for global installs as well.

Local Development with hot reloading, what does your team do?
We currently have makefiles but keeping them up to date as new hires come along is already a pain, I looked at devbox, so maybe that with docker-compose could be a good approach.

Dev environments in the cloud are a half-baked solution
I agree nix is a great way of tackling this problem, but it can also be hard to use for those not familiar with it. Many users start with a tool that makes nix easier to use like https://github.com/jetpack-io/devbox
-
Not a developer, is nix os good for daily regular use without going through the hard stuff ?
No. It requires learning a whole new different way of looking at configuration with its own language. There are some solutions that use nix but try to abstract away the difficulties for development environments e.g., devbox (https://github.com/jetpack-io/devbox). Better looking at those.

Can't use pip to install packages
My recommendation would be to use poetry (https://python-poetry.org/) to setup your python environment. Use nix to install poetry, and then poetry to manage your python project – under the hood it'll create a virtual environment in your project directory and get around the immutable nature of the nix store. I'm the developer of devbox (https://github.com/jetpack-io/devbox) and a lot of our users that use python, have had success with that approach.

NixOS 22.11 “Raccoon” Released
If you are looking for a simple interface that is an alternative to asdf, but uses Nix under the hood, you could check out Devbox (https://github.com/jetpack-io/devbox). Our goal is to make spinning up per-project dev environments easy and approachable, without having to write a full nix.flake.
