Sridhar Ratnakumar will demonstrate using Nix to declaratively manage your dotfiles, programs and services using home-manager, thus replacing the likes of legacy software like homebrew. The goal is to create an one-click environment to setup an user environment on any system, be it a Macbook or a Linux machine.

Among the various examples, we will showcase how to configure Neovim declaratively in Nix, and have it work across platforms. In addition, we will show how to use direnv to develop projects uniformly across different machines.
