NixOS is trending. Literally everybody is talking about NixOS. So what’s up with all the hype?
Now NixOS is not a new Linux distro, in fact It’s a 20 year old Linux distro, But it did release a new version recently and the internet is going crazy. So I started my research and I’m left impressed and facinated by what I found out.
NixOS is not your typical Linux distribution, based on another linux distro with a reskinned desktop. Nope, It would be a huge understatement if I said NixOS is different. NixOS has a very innovative and unique approach to everything. I really hadn’t seen anything like it.
I was really curious So went in for a deep dive with NixOS. I’ve been playing around with NixOS for the last fortnight and it has left me thrilled with literally everything.
NixOS takes a different approach to how we see operating systems and with this, NixOS breaks away from traditional operating system paradigms, offering a whole new level of control, adaptability and user experience. Really, I’m excited to take you on this journey with me and this cutting edge distro.
Before we get anywhere near this distro, It’s important that we understand what is NixOS.
