Greater Copenhagen NixOS User Group - 22 Nov 2023, 06:00 PM

Interested in NixOS? Maybe only its package manager Nix? Want to share how you (ab)use Nix(OS) in your own company? Join this NixOS user group meet-up!

The focus of the November event will be an introduction for newcomers to Nix. Peter Hoeg will hold a talk followed by a hacking session where we will get our hands dirty.

We would like to emphasize that experienced Nix users are more than welcome at this event. Experienced Nix users in the room can help provide good answers to good questions. You are much welcome to bring your own project for the hacking session.

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
