Hi I am Kayleb Barker (eveeifyeve) the owner of DigitalBrewStudios, I wanted to give you our nix mission and a news post and what we are trying to aim.
Our mission
Our missons are:
- To Get Nix working on “Mac, Linux & Windows”.
- To Get Nix bundlers project stable for the
.appimage(already added),.rpm(already added),.exe(This is in our todo),.dmg(In progress), macos.app(In progress) &.flatpak(In progress) bundlers. - To Get NixOps4 to a production stage where it has real usage.
- Orgnise the ecosystem with standards and rfc’s. Eg. like a CI script to certain
namount of time broken packages and create a pr to mark it broken. - To Orgnise the development in nixpkgs. (eg. the ability to use linting directly via devvshell to fixup basic mistakes while also having a pre push hook to prevent any unlinted/formatted code).
- A better NixPkgs Javascript package management hooks & builders to a single unified
fetchJsDeps&configJsDeps(default to npm registry and package manager, but it should be easy to switch out) hook and builderbuildJsPackage. Which the proposal for the js packages will come very soon. - To build bun from source in nixpkgs. and finally a NixOS UI offically (not through clan.lol!).
We belive one day nix will become mainstream a bit more, if we have nix on windows & bundlers support, production usage of NixOps4 and very much more.
If you have any questions about this always feel free to join our discord and leave us a message there in the meantime or if you found this on the NixOS Discourse you can reply below.
SNEEK PEARK: Next post will be about opening Our contact Us page! This offers freelancing, contracting/consulting (getting advice) through us! This includes using nix as a business!
I hope you all have had a good year, let’s get our products like TeaClient, BrewFlow and Other’s out using nix/nixos in production and get the Nix/NixOS community fixed with real productivity being done and real tools to use in production.
