| SYMYƧ | Would this be the right place to provide feedback on nix-pills? It's the closest I've found so far. My complaint is that Chapter 2 could use a lot of improvement. It's missing a lot of context needed to make it understandable to the target audience, and this is a problem considering it's the first true "meaty" chapter (chapter 1 being a justification of why you should use Nix at all). | 23:17:16 |
| SYMYƧ | I also don't entirely understand the history and context of the guide itself. I find it's being suggested as the de-facto standard for learning how to write derivations. Yet, it reads as though it was the work of a single author. Is nix-pills an "official" document that is community maintained? That's kind of how I've been treating it in suggesting improvements, because I've seen it presented as this de-facto standard. | 23:21:37 |

| infinisil | symys: The nix pills live in the official GitHub organisation, so they're official: https://github.com/NixOS/nix-pills | 01:06:33 |
| infinisil | I personally don't think they're as useful as they're made out to be, and would favor deprecating them | 01:07:33 |
| infinisil | The documentation team is focusing on https://nix.dev/ as the way forward (also official) | 01:07:57 |
| infinisil | Despite that, the nix pills are still somewhat maintained, so if you make a PR, the docs team could review and merge that :) | 01:09:29 |
