Location: Vester Farimagsgade 37A

Welcome to another exciting evening of NixOS!

As usual, we meet at PROSA at Vester Farimagsgade 37A.

Room: Kantine, 1. Sal, PASCAL

## Mob coding

This evening, Simon and Martin will facilitate a mob coding session:

1\. Someone sits at the computer with a problem they want to fix
2\. The audience tells them how to try and fix it\, or sit back and relax
3\. We move on to the next problem\, until we have a dinner break

If you have a problem in your nix config you're stuck with, and you want to try to solve it with a big collective brain in the background, we'll make a small list. Otherwise we did bring enough problems to fill the time.

Martin has experience facilitating mob coding events at meetups. Simon teaches programming, so he is used to make mistakes in front of people, and will fill the slots if we're short of problems to solve collectively.

*Why NixOS?*
**NixOS The Purely Functional Linux Distribution**
NixOS is a Linux distribution with a unique approach to package and configuration management. Built on top of the Nix package manager ( nixos.org/nix ), it is completely declarative, makes upgrading systems reliable, and has many other advantages ( nixos.org/nixos/about.html ).
**Declarative**
NixOS has a completely declarative approach to configuration management: you write a specification of the desired configuration of your system in NixOS’s modular language, and NixOS takes care of making it happen.
**Reliable**
NixOS has atomic upgrades and rollbacks. It’s always safe to try an upgrade or configuration change: if things go wrong, you can always roll back to the previous configuration.
Come join us for a cosy night of Nix(OS). There will be pizza, kindly sponsored by PROSA
