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.

No formal wrap-up notes from Planet Nix, but who needs them when a picture says more than a thousand words?
One highlight? 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!
