Amazing introduction! The configuration files syntax makes more sense now

@leonhma 11 ай бұрын

Literally the best videos about nix. And easy to understand too. Great stuff

@discocat2500 5 ай бұрын

Agreed, this is super helpful. Keep up the great work!

This looks like a beautiful language! And how lovely that it has such a practical use case

Love the videos. The editing, the speed and the content. What is really missing though is the text notes😢

I had to pause a lot towards the end, but it's very informative.

3:48 sounds weird in imperative style thinking, but given in a functional-imperative approach, i would say having one expression / evaluated result per file makes total sense?

6:09 So like currying in Haskell? Awesome!

3:10 was the image on the right meant to stay still?

@vimjoyer 11 ай бұрын

Yes, there is a slight offset there for some reason Edit: Yes as in you are right, not as in it was meant to stay still

6:25 Thanks for the curry!

Do you think making such a video would have been significantly more difficult without motioncanvas?

@vimjoyer 11 ай бұрын

Motioncanvas just makes it simpler. I'd spend much more time on it if I used Blender + PNG code blocks like I did before. Mutating code was tedious the old way because I had to make sure that every frame stays in the same place and has the same size. Moving code-blocks was a nightmare, and now I can slide everything around with a couple of keystrokes. Vim macros make the process even more enjoyable :D

These videos are awesome ma dude and I would really like to see you cover the built-in functions in another video as well. 👍🤌

@NivasSV 10 ай бұрын

Please make a video for the built in functions.

@francoisdprob 11 ай бұрын

Thanks! Can you please make a video on how to manage secrets?

@vimjoyer 11 ай бұрын

Maybe. I tried sops-nix, but I did not have any use cases for it.

@mgkallits 10 ай бұрын

Amazing video, please make a guide on how to setup startx. I can’t figure it out

@lomenzel 2 ай бұрын

4:58 wouldn't it evaluate to { a = 5; b = 10; c = 15; } instead of just 15

Yeah, that's a visual mistake

I think this is the best introductory video on the nix language that I’ve seen 🙌🏼

Too fast Yurii, as someone who read the docs and played with the repl and wrote some nix code I get all of this. But past me who just installed nix in a VM or hardware probably wouldn't understand much. The editing is also not good. That time you showed different ways of declaring nested atrrsets the editing flipped between all the versions too fast and instead should've showed them side by side.

@vimjoyer 6 ай бұрын

Thanks, I'll keep that in mind

@zaiquiriw 6 ай бұрын

Agreed

@boticelli-lol-5606 6 ай бұрын

I think its fine. I'm a nixos noob, but I can just pause when needed. The peace is fine too me.

@shinobiwannabe 6 ай бұрын

As someone who used to other language and just wanted a crash course this was perfect. I’d rather have to pause when needed then play the video at 2x speed or something

@DavidTorralbaGoitia 6 ай бұрын

I think it's fine too, I personally rather have it fast and pause the video when needed, as opposed to setting the video to 2x - very subjective the explanations are great though!
