Pick any package from 13 years of nixpkgs history and boot it in an x86_64 Linux VM in your tab. No server anywhere.
Any Nix package, live in your browser
tl;dr Try it at https://trynix.dev. Click hello, or python 3.6.2 from 2017, or two eras of hello at once, or a package that exists in no public cache. A Linux machine boots in the tab and you get a shell with those Nix packages on PATH.
