An example providing rust toolchain for Linux/macOS using devenv.sh
In this language context specifically, if one wanted to manage their workspace with Nix I would reach for Riff and/or oxalica/rust-overlay first, since they are deliberately more aware of Rust-specific nuance. In the latter's case it has compatibility paths with rustup-toolchain files as well, for allowing your peers who can't or won't adopt Nix to continue to feel like first-class participants in the project. Another alternative I don't have experience with would be nix-community/fenix.

devenv: Fast, Declarative, Reproducible, and Composable Developer Environments
Seems to have spiritual overlap with what I understand the goals of Riff to be. Both projects are early stage and not able to cover every language ecosystem yet.

An invitation to Rust maintainers from Determinate Systems
No, I wouldn't say that's obvious. Riff doesn't need 100% buy-in from all Rust maintainers because not all Rust projects have external dependencies. But what we've found in our research on the crate ecosystem is that there are particularly busy "nodes" in the dependency graph. Each time a busy "node" with external dependencies adds a few lines to Cargo.toml, that un-breaks a number of downstream project builds. Our internal registry is pretty small but even that has substantially increased the % of projects in which riff run cargo build works without issue. It's an asymptotic approach and we're confident that sufficient awareness could get us pretty darned close.

Introducing Riff, a Nix-based tool for automatically providing external dependencies to Rust projects
We currently have a hard-coded [registry](https://github.com/DeterminateSystems/riff/blob/main/registry/registry.json) of some known per-crate dependencies. But the goal is less to hard-code ever more dependencies and more to convince maintainers to explicitly [declare dependencies](https://github.com/determinateSystems/riff#how-to-declare-package-inputs) in their `Cargo.toml` under `package.metadata.riff`. Because Riff uses `cargo metadata` for the entirety of the crate dependency graph, explicit dependency declarations actually benefit downstream crates as well.
