I’m really happy with how well this came out. Lots of new users who were intimidated by the CLI installer have started experimenting with Nix because of it. Fun to see!

  • The package is readily usable by mobile device management (MDM) platforms like Mosyle. This can serve as a powerful way to distribute Nix to users in managed environments—without needing to run a shell command themselves.

Ooh, that’s quite cool. Always annoying to run into orgs that lock down systems so much you can’t even configure your editor, there should be more tools that integrate with them ootb to make convincing ops easier.
