🚀 flox+Nix Community Update 2023-04

We’re excited to announce the flox+Nix community updates series! We hope to keep the community updated on our efforts to make Nix great, and shine some light on our internal Nix rock stars! :metal:

Without further ado, let’s jump into the updates.

:books: Documentation

April saw most movement in the documentation area. Ron helped kick-start the documentation fundraiser, and flox put its money where its mouth is by donating the initial €5,000.00. As of writing, the fundraiser raised more than €17,000.00!

However, @zmitchell did not wait until the fundraiser craziness was over to improve Nix’s documentation. They continued their work on the learning journey working group.

:technologist: Development

All merged and reviewed pull requests for April

Merged PRs


The development side of things was a bit quieter than the documentation effort. @tomberek did work on quality of life improvements for the Nix ecosystem, and @ysndr continued their work on runix.

:wave: Closing Statement

We at flox hope to continue the effort we put into the Nix ecosystem. Providing visibility into these efforts—with this new series of posts—is one way we engage with the community. I, personally, hope you found this post insightful, and I’ll be waiting for you at the next post. Until then.
