## 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.
