I think once somebody solves the hellish configuration with another language that people can actually understand NixOs will take off. I mean, I hate js as much as everybody else, but I’d rather use that to configure nix than whatever that thing is that they use now.
- rjblackman 3y agoThere is garn a typescript frontend to the nix language. https://github.com/garnix-io/garn/ https://github.com/garnix-io/garn/
- stevefolta 3y agoThe language isn't the problem, it's the structure (if you can call it that) of Nixpkgs that makes it so difficult. And no, flakes are not the answer, they may solve composability but they create other problems.
