#declare distro - #3 ("What you're refering to as GuixSD, is in fact, the GNU Guix System, or as I've recently taken to calling it, the Guix System.")

Parentheses and free software, oh my! My foray into the Guix system was very interesting to say the least. Luckily, my knowledge from Nix partially carried over, so I was familiar with concepts like derivations, profiles, dev shells, and the like. What I was not familiar with was IRC and the linux-libre kernel.

Technically, I’ve only used the Guix system in a VM. However, I used/use Guix to create development environments much like how I used to with Nix flakes. However, there are still some flakes I can’t currently replace. I’m missing the arduino-cli, the neocities-cli, and a few other things.
