Description
We will give a brief overview of the Nixpkgs syntax as well as its benefits while teaching how to apply it to real world scenarios. We will also provide a guide on how to change your environments to test your code locally before committing it to your repo.
Here you can find the executable tutorial on either KillerCoda or GitHub.
Relevance
It is very important to test your code before you submit it, even if there are CI actions in place. As a team starts to grow, different developers with different machines with different environment states. It is therefore essential to ensure that even if machines have different configurations the result of testing should be the same.
