 @olafklingt:matrix.org | I started to think/brainstorm about the NixOS manual again. And i remember that fricklerhandwerk recently said that he thinks "a lot of things in the manual should be on the wiki". What was did you had in mind with of that statement? | 19:15:31 |

I started to think/brainstorm about the NixOS manual again. And i remember that fricklerhandwerk recently said that he thinks "a lot of things in the manual should be on the wiki". What was did you had in mind with of that statement? All the NixOS-specific interfaces should be documented in the manual. Probably also installation instructions. How to use/troubleshoot particular software can be in the Wiki, because that's not actually about NixOS. | 22:22:05 |

| @olafklingt:matrix.org | this closed pr https://github.com/NixOS/nix.dev/pull/964 triggered my brainstorming mind to think about the possibility to have testable tutorials.
What if every tutorial is an annotated nixos-test?
For me the question is not focused on the style of annotation right now.
But rather if you have ideas why an attempt to realize this would be futile?
maybe to difficult to realize for potential content contributors (deteriorating)?
maybe to complex to implement correctly (endless poc...)? | 14:52:22 |
