Welcome to 'A tour of Nix', a beautifully crafted introduction into the Nix programming language.

'A tour of Nix' focuses on programming language constructs and how Nix can be algorithmically used to solve problems. However, this is not an introduction into nix-env, nix-shell, nix-repl and we won't build/install software using stdenv.mkDerivation. Still we bundled nixpkgs into 'A tour of Nix' and you can use the Nix library functions' from pkgs/lib, which are used for packaging software.

When ready, just click the next button on the top right corner.

Note: 'A tour of Nix' can be used offline once it has loaded in the browser. ##Shortcuts

  • next page: ctrl + j
  • prev page: ctrl + k
  • run : shift + return

License(s)

'A tour of Nix' contains this software:

emscripten (1.29.10)

Emscripten is available under 2 licenses, the MIT license and the University of Illinois/NCSA Open Source License.

Both are permissive open source licenses, with little if any practical difference between them.

The reason for offering both is that (1) the MIT license is well-known, while (2) the University of Illinois/NCSA Open Source License allows Emscripten's code to be integrated upstream into LLVM, which uses that license, should the opportunity arise.
