Seems like this distro is getting a lot of traction recently. Has anyone tried it? Is it any good?

    Is it a big learning curve? Is this the emacs equivalent of OS configuration/installation?

    edit: another question - Could I play around with it by installing in qemu and if I like that, take my configuration.nix from qemu and install it as my main OS?

      Absolutely. That’s how I got started ;)

      If you install Nix (the package manager) on your current system, you can actually directly build a vm from a config file via nixos-rebuild build-vm.
