If *installable* evaluates to a derivation, it will try to execute the
program `<out>/bin/<name>`, where *out* is the primary output store
path of the derivation and *name* is the `meta.mainProgram` attribute
of the derivation if it exists, and otherwise the `pname` attribute of
the derivation or the name part of the value of the `name` attribute of
the derivation (e.g. if `name` is set to `hello-1.10`, it will run

exists:
* The `meta.mainProgram` attribute of the derivation.
* The `pname` attribute of the derivation.
* The name part of the value of the `name` attribute of the derivation.
For instance, if `name` is set to `hello-1.10`, `nix run` will run
`$out/bin/hello`.
