A collection of pure Nix utility functions for writing Nix flakes, with no dependency on nixpkgs. It provides helpers like eachSystem and eachDefaultSystem to reduce boilerplate when generating per-system flake outputs.
Use cases
- reduce boilerplate in flake.nix outputs
- iterate flake outputs over multiple systems
- customize the list of supported systems in a flake
- write nixpkgs-independent flake helpers
- avoid typos when referencing system strings in flakes
When to choose
- you are authoring a Nix flake and want to avoid repetitive per-system boilerplate
- you want small, pure Nix functions without pulling in nixpkgs
When to avoid
- you are not using Nix or Nix flakes
- you prefer writing flake outputs manually or using newer built-in Nix features
