Scope

[Malix-Labs]

Problem

Scope

It features elements that are not atomic, but rather declarative and reproducible

Examples

Currently :

• NixOS
• Flox

Open feature requests :

• Nix #59
• Tvix #60

Proposed Solutions

• Deprecate all out-of-scope elements (pity)

• Do not fix out-of-scope elements (misleading)

• Enlarge the scope (rebrand)

  The other elements are almost all not declarative, and often not reproducible

  See “Immutable” → reprovisionable, anti-hysteresis

  Choices

  • Reproducible
  • Reprovisionable
  • Deterministic
  • ? (please propose)
