   @AngryAnt @raboof Frankly, I haven't even looked at this #NixOS feature.

   My experience so far which doesn't necessarily contradict your comment: if something is working, its "source" looks clean and you can reproduce it a number of times. 👍

   However to get to that point in the first place, I had to bump into too many issues, rely on multiple experts on the Internet to help me with my specific issue until it somehow worked and I did not even understand all the mistakes I did which is a pity with respect to learning.

   My most significant example: simply invoking a local #Python script.

   You could read about the very last mile of that journey here: https://discourse.nixos.org/t/nix-shell-isnt-executing-its-python-poetry-command-and-doesnt-exit/58452

   Note that it took me half a year, at least six iterations of approaches including switching to poetry, various variations of nix-shells/shellscript combinations and so forth.

   And this all for a task that is easy as "python3 ./myscript.py" on all(!) other operating systems.

   Hardly a motivation for me for NixOS.
