Yes! My goal is “full-stack” Nix on Codespaces, but alpine gets me halfway for now. I don’t yet know how I will achieve this, but I like to think it’s only a matter of time given my unreasonably-determined willpower.

I often work in a Windows environment so this browser approach keeps me sane during business hours. I’m a big fan of repl.it but I hadn’t considered it as a conceptual competitor to Codespaces, so I’ll play with it and see what sparks 🤙🏼Thanks!

The university.nix file could serve as a micro-library of helper functions to bridge users from other languages. I’m trying to avoid adding yet another tutorial to the ecosystem, but if there’s a niche to be filled then I’m not opposed.

Food for thought!

Microsoft Excel. I can explain.

Edit: The Lambda Calculus now natively ships with Excel.
