Nix-Tips

A good list of nix anti-patterns: https://nix.dev/anti-patterns/language, I am not sure why I haven’t found this before.

Note to self: when writing scripts depending on more than a couple of other binaries, it’s better to use pkgs.writeShellApplication rather than pkgs.writeShellScriptBin.

This way you can safely use binary instead of ${pkgs.package}/bin/binary.
