# Lix
**Lix** is an implementation of **Nix**, a powerful package management system for Linux and other Unix systems that makes package management reliable and reproducible.
Read more about us at https://lix.systems.
## Installation
On Linux and macOS the easiest way to install Nix is to run the following shell command
(as a user other than root):
```console
$ curl -sSf -L https://install.lix.systems/lix | sh -s -- install
```
For systems that **already have Nix installed**, such as NixOS systems, read our [install page](https://lix.systems/install)
## Building And Developing
See our [Hacking guide](https://git.lix.systems/lix-project/lix/src/branch/main/doc/manual/src/contributing/hacking.md) in our manual for instruction on how to to set up a development environment and build Lix from source.
