Nix & NixOS | Declarative builds and deployments
Nix is a tool that takes a unique approach to package management and system configuration. Learn how to make reproducible, declarative and reliable systems.

Introduction - flake-parts
flake-parts provides the options that represent standard flake attributes and establishes a way of working with system. Opinionated features are provided by an ecosystem of modules that you can import.

Remote Builds - Nix Reference Manual
Nix supports remote builds, where a local Nix installation can forward Nix builds to other machines. This allows multiple builds to be performed in parallel and allows Nix to perform multi-platform builds in a semi-transparent way. For instance, if you perform a build for a x86_64-darwin on an i686-linux machine, Nix can automatically forward the build to a x86_64-darwin machine, if available.

Build Reproducible Analytical Pipelines with Nix
Streamlines the creation of reproducible analytical pipelines using default.nix expressions generated via the rix package for reproducibility. Define derivations in R, Python or Julia, chain them into a composition of pure functions and build the resulting pipeline using Nix as the underlying end-to-end build tool. Functions to plot the pipeline as a directed acyclic graph are included, as well as functions to load and inspect intermediary results for interactive analysis. User experience heavily inspired by the targets package.

In fact, one of the leading local-first libraries, Zero, doesn't even fully support offline: zero.rocicorp.dev/docs/offline They only support offline reads, the same as Count Cachula! So I ask, if fast instant reads is the goal, isn't standard HTTP caching mechanisms the better way to go?
