This is like 'nix run', except that the command to execute is defined in a flake output, e.g. defaultApp = { type = "app"; program = "${packages.blender_2_80}/bin/blender"; }; Thus you can do $ nix app blender-bin to start Blender from the 'blender-bin' flake. In the future, we can extend this with sandboxing. (For example we would want to be able to specify that Blender should not have network access by default and should only have access to certain paths in the user's home directory.) |

Nix, the purely functional package manager
Nix is a new take on package management that is fairly unique. Because of its purity aspects, a lot of issues found in traditional package managers don't appear with Nix.
To find out more about the tool, usage and installation instructions, please read the manual, which is available on the Nix website at http://nixos.org/nix/manual.
