 FRidh | I think we should work to having testable examples. That is, CI test the code in tests. Of course our integration tests do that exactly for certain guides. But otherwise, I think we may learn here fromother ecosystems | 10:37:03 |
| FRidh | For discoverability we can tag hooks. https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/197070 This way we can find them easier and include in docs or highlight them on the packages website | 10:40:27 |

| ruby | Hi all - popping in to say I'd love to help lend a hand with contributing to Nix documentation! Was watching Valentin's talk on the NixCon livestream last night, and it's nice to see that we've got a strong effort growing to help address one of my biggest pain points with using Nix, as well as recommending it to my friends. More than happy to lend a hand whereever needed 😄 | 11:44:03 |
| brainrake | We're having a meeting about that right now ^ | 12:02:45 |

We're currently having a meeting at NixCon. You can lurk what we're thinking/talking about: https://pad.lassul.us/gshjat31S9uSDX5GwhKeOw?edit Essentially, we're discussing on bootstrapping the documentation contribution pipeline | 12:01:53 |

Oh, it looks like a room can belong to both a space and one of its subspaces (e.g. the NixOS on ARM room does this). Could the same be done for this room? grahamc (he/him) / Domen Kožar — do you think this could be done for this room? I.e. make it be included in both the "teams" subspace and the top-level NixOS space? | 20:03:22 |
| Yuki (they/them) | I wonder whether the documentation for everything related to contributing documentation should have a dedicated section in nix.dev | 21:45:08 |
| Yuki (they/them) | Meh, I’ll just do it next week and make a PR so y’all can see instead of wasting time explaining it here. | 21:47:08 |

| Alex | The "Nix language basics" link under the "Next steps" section of https://nixos.org/guides/ad-hoc-developer-environments.html is broken.
It seems like it was meant to link to https://nix.dev/tutorials/nix-language#reading-nix-language, but that page hasn't been put on nixos.org. | 21:12:47 |

 chreekat | Some feedback from having someone ask me about flakes: after viewing https://nixos.wiki/wiki/Flakes ("clear as mud") and after I linked them to https://nixos.org/manual/nix/stable/command-ref/new-cli/nix3-flake.html#description, they still say "It still doesn't say what they actually do... or why they are called flakes" | 10:42:15 |
