What's your opinion on nvm, rvm, virtualenv, etc, that try to solve *similar* problems for other languages.

From when I last played with Nix about 2 years ago - 1. Nix didn't play well with GHCJS. Reflex platform is the best way really? 2. Nix support on Macs was terrible and frequently buggy. 3. Nix compilation times and memory requirements were insane (32 GB RAM anyone).

Would you say that nix-on-windows is newbie friendly (no idea, just asking)? Also, alas I have a windows 7 system sadly which doesn't have WSL.

Agreed, but lots of people (especially newbies) are on windows, and it helps to have one tool work everywhere, and in exactly the same way.

Gah.. we.. just.. discussed.. how nix doesn't work on Windows 7. Anyways, no reason to argue, can you point me to the most newbie friendly nix setup (linux/mac) for Haskell development? I'll try it out myself and with some people new to Haskell, and report back on how that goes.
