Thanks. I also found this Cheatsheet from the NixOS Wiki with comparisons to apt-get to be useful: https://nixos.wiki/index.php?title=Cheatsheet&useskin=vector

Thanks. I also found this Cheatsheet from the NixOS Wiki with comparisons to apt-get to be useful: https://nixos.wiki/index.php?title=Cheatsheet&useskin=vector https://nixos.wiki/index.php?title=Cheatsheet&useskin=vector I would also love to see a tutorial for beginners on Linux that covers common tasks like viewing changelogs, creating a simple package, and pinning multiple dependencies in an environment.

I'm actually aiming to do that in a series of post in the upcoming month(s)... I've started with a noob-friendly (written by a noob!) introduction and plan to continue with installer, basic package creation, module creation, discussing how to do rollback, what are generations etc. etc. ... I did some presentations on NixOS and these topics so I'd like to distill that into a short and easy to grasp blog posts @ https://nixos.online https://nixos.online - feedback is more than welcome! Maybe I could also include my own cheatsheet, which is refurbished version of the "official" one, but just for the basic commands in direct comparison to Debian-like distros.

  A straight-up cheatsheet would be useful. I didn't find the direct comparison to apt to be useful before installing nixos, to be honest, but as primarily a `nix-shell --pure` user who just got nixos installed on my server, I suppose I might revisit it...
