Easy development environments with Nix and Nix flakes!
A devshell discussion with Nix is not complete without introducing direnv. direnv is a tool that very simply runs commands based on the current directory. It is tedious to run nix develop to get into a development shell every time. It's also tedious to remember to exit the dev shell when you're done. direnv automatically does this for you, so it's a valuable addition! It also allows you to use these shells within non-terminal editors like VSCode and JetBrains.

Mise: Dev tools, env vars, task runner

Secret management for the layman
You can also configure direnv, to load the nix dependencies, as soon as you cd into the directory. This has been a powerful new method in my development toolkit.

We're Leaving Kubernetes
We've been using Nix flakes and direnv (https://direnv.net/) for developer environments and NixOS with https://github.com/serokell/deploy-rs for prod/deploys - takes serious digging and time to set up, but excellent experience with it so far.
