This might be one the best guides in the internet I've ever seen.

I always feel that when I am not quite getting something in the nix ecosystem, I can watch a vimjoyer video about the topic and it is like a burst of enlightenment where now I can see everything I was missing before! Thanks so much for this amazing content!

This is the most thorough and clear explanation of what a flake is that I've found, including your past videos. Great job!

I'm looking forward to your future video on devshells. I already use them, but I could be using them better I am sure of it!

I just installed NixOS the other day and was wondering about flakes. Perfect timing!

I really appreciate your video style. The arrow moving around while you talk about the parts of the configuration is brilliant! It activates my visual-learning even better than just reading along. Much better for me than just listening to the description. I also appreciate how clean and clear all the textual information is. Your voice is clear enough and I can certainly follow what you say. But your accent, cadence, and where your voice goes up or down at parts of the sentence is not "natural" to my ear, being conditioned much more to a "midland" American English dialect. The implication is that it that when listening to a lot of dense information in a less-familiar accent, I find I have to go back and re-hear many times for the comprehension to sink in. The visual aid helps quite a lot. I really like it. Thank you, Vimjoyer! ( vim-joy-er? You love Vim? 😁) Please be encouraged to keep putting out great Nix content. You're definitely appreciated!

I’m tearing, I’ve been using flakes for some months now, have a full fledged multi-host config, but many areas were still obscure to me. Your videos are illuminating in many small big ways, I can’t thank you enough, keep it going!

I've learned more about flakes and also the nix language itself by reproducing your examples and also experimenting with changing things little by little than I've ever managed from just trying to read some docs online.

Hands down best explanation on flakes I've seen so far in the small amount of time I've been part of this community. Thank you so much for all the work and effort you put into this, you're contribution is invaluable to many of us <3

the only problem i have ever had with nix is the accessibility of the documentation, thank you for completely destroying this issue <3

Many thanks. Just what I needed, as I started reorganizing the configs of 3 hosts running NixOS inside a flake yesterday 🙏🤓

thrown into the nix deepend at work, these have been a godsend, thank you

btw your animations are very smooth and impressive, great way to show your code changes as you demonstrate, that extra effort really shines through

Good, i am finally beginning to grasp nix and flakes - this is one of the few videos that explains them well.

This channel keeps my sanity when learning and using NixOS. Bless the man

I followed along typing the code and I have to say this was great. Obviously had a bunch of typos, but that improves the learning. Thanks.

This deff helped me understand a bit more and I really appreciate your videos on nix. I'm still super confused though, I had to stop using nix even tho it was only a side-project system because there were a few programs I couldn't figure out how to use on nix (ly greeter for example) I hope it was just a misunderstanding on my part. Someday I'll spend more time trying to better understand how to use NixOS but it's incredibly hard to wrap my head around it all.

Man I wish I had seen a video like this before jumping in and building my config. Demystifies a lot of knowledge gaps in using flakes.

Ey! Awesome video man, love to see the slightly longer versions as I feel some of your older videos could go a bit more in depth. :)
