@onlinepersona @deluxeparrot Last time I checked, jetbrains editors didn't support nix well. Has that changed?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago (4 children)

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?

Same, and it looks like nix is not going to get a good support soon, because it's at the same time not widespread enough and has a complicated semantic. Well at least complicated enough for me as a dev that uses it but still struggles a lot to debug issues.

I've been building out a neovim setup with the nixvim project, in the mean time been using vscodium with no complaints would recommend both options

@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.
