DevOS requires the flakes feature available via an experimental branch of nix. Until nix 2.4 is released, this project should be considered unstable.
Make an awesome template for NixOS users, with consideration for common tools like home-manager, devshell, and more.
Flakes are a part of an explicit push to improve Nix's UX, and have become an integral part of that effort.
They also make Nix expressions easier to distribute and reuse with convient flake references for building or using packages, modules, and whole systems.
Check out the guide to get up and running.
Also, have a look at flake.nix. If anything is not immediately
discoverable via "digga's mkFlake,
please file a bug report.
Although this project has already matured quite a bit, especially through
recent outfactoring of digga, a fair amount of api polishing is still
expected. There are unstable versions (0.x.x) to help users keep track
of changes and progress, and a develop branch for the brave 😜

This work does not reinvent the wheel. It stands on the shoulders of the following giants:

The divnix org is an open space that spontaniously formed out of "the Nix". It is really just a place where otherwise unrelated people a) get together and b) stuff done.
It's a place to stop "geeking out in isolation" (or within company boundaries), experiment and learn together and iterate quickly on best practices. That's what it is.
It might eventually become a non-profit if that's not too complicated or if those goals are sufficiently upstreamed into "the Nix", dissolved.
