@onlinepersona @deluxeparrot Last time I checked, jetbrains editors didn’t support nix well. Has that changed?
To my knowledge there’s still only nix-idea, but tbh I haven’t found any good IDE or editor for nix. Syntax highlighting is easy, but advanced features like code suggestion, “GOTO definition”, and so on have never worked for me 🤷 Does good nix support exist anywhere?
@onlinepersona https://github.com/oxalica/nil might worth a try. It’s implementing the language server protocol so it can be used with any editor/IDE that has support. I am sure intellij has a plugin for that.
@onlinepersona #nix works very nice as a systems package manager. I use it to pull in C libs or build my own, without polluting my base system. And it’s much more lightweight than VM or even docker, especially flakes that I discovered recently.
