Declarative, Reproducible, and Composable Developer Environments by Otto Lederle

Ever wasted hours debugging your development setup because "it works on my machine" but not yours? Or juggled nvm, pyenv, phpenv, jenv, or rustup just to match a teammate’s environment? What if you could declare your entire dev setup in code, share it seamlessly, and never worry about inconsistencies again?In this talk, we’ll explore Nix, a powerful ecosystem (language, package manager, and more) that can be used to create reproducible, isolated dev environments for web projects and beyond. No more global state pollution, no more manual version syncing, and no more "just install these 10 things first."This talk is for anyone who wants to explore fresh perspectives on tooling, whether you’re satisfied with your current setup or simply curious about alternatives.
