The declarative approach taken by NixOS makes it a breeze to manage my system in a reproducible way.



Also NixOS is one of the easiest distributions to contribute to. It's just a Github PR away.

Distribution without installer. You have to copy sentences on the terminal for 30 minutes (or more) ... Me, it didn't work!

With NixOS I was able to declaratively configure my whole system in one place. Sometimes the documentation is lacking but the Nix language is easy to read and most of the code is straightforward.



There is no turning back for me!
