Trying to decide on whether to use Nix on my new Macbook… the idea of Nix always appeals to me, but I always get lost in all the decisions I need to make when setting it up. Do I wait for another release cycle and just go with Brew for now? 🤔

If you haven't already seen it, do check out nix.dev ; there has been a bunch of documentation effort recently. (I'm not using Nix, but I was also looking into it.)

Additionally: how do you work with your environment configuration instead?

It's that I haven't had the time to sit down and read the docs. I usually end up using whatever makes sense based on the language I'm using and whether it is project-specific or global: could be brew/apt, nvm, rustup, stack, opam or something else.
