## FAQ
|
|
|
|
|
* **What is nix?**
|
|
|
|
|
Nix is a tool that takes a unique approach to package management and system configuration.
|
|
|
|
|
* **Nix benefits**
|
|
|
|
|
Nix is reproducible, declarative and reliable.
|
|
|
|
|
* **Why flakes?**
|
|
|
|
|
Flakes allow you to specify your code's dependencies (e.g. remote Git repositories) in a declarative way,
|
|
|
|
|
simply by listing them inside a flake.nix file.
