I am slow in the hype-cycle. Devenv.sh for years was my loyal environment manager and, with all it quirks in fish shell in particular, was good enough. One day in which I could’t get SecretSpec to work I found out about Mise which its rich ecosystem. Granted there is much more magic involved then in Devenv.sh but features, speed and reliability is unmatched in any way. Give it try you even can pull packages from nixpkgs which was the last straw keeping me in devenv.sh.

I only recently discovered nix-community/comma but can’t stop praising it for its utility. Need a tool - comma has it! Need ponysay, but don’t want to nix-rebuild or forgot how to type nix run again. How about running:

, ponysay "its that easy?"

Works with sudo and even shell piping
