Anyone using Tidal Cycles on NixOS?

Hey folks, just wondering if anyone on here is using Tidal Cycles and maybe has a devShell they’d like to share?

I’ve always been put off playing with Tidal Cycles solely because the installation/setup has traditionally been so imperative and messy.

Now that I’m a bit deeper into Nix I’m thinking I’ll have go at making a devShell I can drop into that provides supercollider, haskell, dirt, vim plugin and maybe boots a supercollider server in a service, ready to go for composing/experimenting.

I’m thinking it’d be nice to have it in a declarative, reproducible environment I can easily share between my desktop and lappy.

Looking forward to writing this, but thought I’d check if anyone has anything up their sleeve in the meantime :slight_smile:
