Nix, the purely functional package manager
So instead of a 'flake.nix', flakes can now contain a 'nix.toml' file
like this:
description = "My own Hello World"
[inputs]
configs.url = "github:tweag/nix-ux/configs?dir=configs"
[my-hello]
extends = [ "configs#hello" ]
doc = '''
A specialized version of the Hello package!
'''
who = "Springfield"
'my-hello' defines an output named 'modules.my-hello', which can be
built as follows:
$ nix build /path/to/flake#my-hello
$ ./result/bin/hello
Hello Springfield
