Maybe worth mentioning rust and performance more prominently as the motivations.

Is Nix eating the world? We have seen lots of unbelievable projects using it on HN recently. It feels like anyone serious about complex systems and building software are embracing it.

I use it extensively also via nixpkgs, though somehow I have yet to make the leap to full NixOS.

One consideration for anyone who hasn’t jumped in, is that I have nixpkgs on Linux, MacOS, and Win11 hosts. I’ve found that incredibly useful.
