 K900 | If you want to package for nixpkgs, the only thing you can use is rustPlatform | 08:04:12 |

My goal is to package mainly, also wanted to learn rust on the way😅 then it's just a matter of creating a package with rustPlatform.buildRustPackage and a devshell with inputsFrom = [thatPackage]; nativeBuildInputs = [rust-analyzer]; and a formatter of your choice (rustfmt or genemichaels) | 08:12:13 |
| vivekanandan_ks | Looks like there's more for me to learn. But it somewhat feels easier than the rabbit hole I went for python packaging in nix🥲
Looks like rust toolchain ecosystem is better

| Acid Bong | i'd say there's less to learn (I find Fenix and such too convoluted for me) | 05:02:36 |
| vivekanandan_ks | Yes.
It's just for trying out other toolchain like beta, nightly etc.
It's not that hard too😅.
But I went with naersk for local development.

| vivekanandan_ks | I'm scratching the absolute basics now ❤️ I love certain design so far.
I only know python before this. 😅
