A thing about Nix for new users: flakes make dependency management less… flakey. 😆 💡 A flake is just a repo with a flake.nix file. 💡 It enforces structure & manages dependencies. 💡 Flake references use a URL-like syntax and can be locked for reproducibility. Learn more, visit nix.dev

Engaging discussions with the #System76 team about their COSMIC, which runs on Ampere, and, of course, #NixOS. Because at its core, a conference is about the exchange of ideas!
