Description

NixOS is a unique Linux distribution built on the Nix package manager. The entire system is described declaratively in a configuration file and can be built reproducibly. Changes can be rolled back at any time, and different software versions can be installed in parallel. NixOS is particularly well-suited for DevOps, system administration, and users who want full control over their system.
