Hi everyone!

I saw that NixOS is getting popularity recently. I really have no idea why and how this OS works. Can you guys help me understanding all of this ?

Thanks !

    Well, Nix has a very liberal definition of a “package”. Your web browser, its wrapper script, a service file, a config file; those are all technically “packages” (or “derivation” as Nix calls them).
