Wow, nixidy really seems to tie up a lot of loose ends around working with Kubernetes in consistent, holistic way.

Naming is hard, sure, but doing some due diligence up front to see what's already being used isn't very difficult. Very neat tool.

Any plans to natively support projects using devenv instead of flakes?

Being able to drop direnv as a dependency for environment auto-activation has been very nice.

Shared up the chain, but bringing your attention to it as well: https://nixidy.dev/ solves all of these issues.

Are you hiring? This sounds like a really cool space and product to work on.

Whoa. This is very, very cool. I love TypeScript and its type system, and started using Nix in the past few years and wished it could have something similar.

Who watches the watcher? i.e. verify.ps1 is a separate program that needs to be verified somehow.

I’m genuinely not trying to be combative here — I’m just noticing that a lot of your choices seem pretty unconventional, and I’m trying to understand the reasoning behind them, because they are making it hard to interact with you and your project.

- You’re using Nix (which I am familiar with, and why I am here).

- Instead of Git, you’re using “darcs,” which I haven’t encountered before.

- Instead of Flakes, you built Nixtamal.

- For communication, you’re using an XMPP chatroom, which I’m also not familiar with. (Same with MUC — that’s new to me as well.)

Which leaves me with the one experience I'm able to have, in the one place I'm able to share it with you (here):

Odd thing to proclaim, as Nix and Dagger-orchestrated containers are not 1:1?

First-glance feedback is that Nix (https://nixos.org/) is _way_ too established a technology to use its name in another software project, if only for SEO reasons, and I'd recommend coming up with a new moniker.

NixOS is what you are describing: https://nixos.org
