- Nix stores packages and environments in unique hash paths under
/nix/store, ensuring identical builds whenever the inputs are the same.
- Dependency pinning with Flakes: Uses
flake.nixandflake.lockfiles to pin all project dependencies with cryptographic hashes, making builds reproducible even years later

What is Nix
Zero to Nix
Declarative, reproducible development environments No more "works on my machine." Create environments that work seamlessly and are easily sharable across platforms. Declarative, reproducible package builds No more broken builds or mysterious installation processes. Nix builds packages from scratch every time. The largest package repository in existence Nixpkgs offers over 80,000 packages and continues to grow every day.
