What are your thoughts on the section about NixOS?
It has already been said many times but NixOS suffer from a poor and a fragmented documentation.
The Official Nixos Manual is a very good start to install Nixos. But that's it.
It does not explain all the logic behind NixOS for already experienced user. Because yes, Nixos is absolulety not for beginners !
Nixos is a kind of blackbox where once you've luckily found the site https://search.nixos.org/options it comes with all the options you were looking for.
You need a sysadmin background to understrand theses options like (ie: services.nginx.virtualHosts.<name>.locations.<name>.extraConfig). A reverse dictionary of how we used to do things with traditionnal distro and how to do with Nixos should be a very good start !
At least, the extrem big fucking issue is the complete mess between Nixos/Nix/Flake/Home Manager. Theirs documentation and definition are often "recursive dependant" in a way you are completely lost.
If i compare to AUR (ArchLinux User Repository), the learning curve to create a custom package is quite easy. For Nix, it requires an amount of concentration, reads and skills to do the same. This discourage users.
