Projects

This project is heavily based on haskell-flake, from which it takes its overall structure.

It’s also influenced, indebted by the following projects in a number of ways:

• devenv (GitHub):
  • Among other things, the way it handles the developer environment — see devshell.nix;
• treefmt-nix:
  • Integration with the bare Nix module system — see default.nix.
• cuda-api-wrappers
  • A CUDA example of matrix multiplication using libcublas: src/modified_cuda_samples/matrixMulCUBLAS/matrixMulCUBLAS.cpp

It goes without saying that these proejects don’t have anything to do with conan-flake — all wrong design decisions taken on the present scope are on our own account.

Tutorials

A good overview of the Nix module system is on nix.dev:

• Module system,

specially the second part:

• Module system deep dive.

As for the standard environment, it’s worth emphasizing the already mentioned:

• 19. Fundamentals of Stdenv,

Docs

A good source of information is Nixpkgs Reference Manual:

• The Standard Environment

The conan-flake options themselves are published, generated from the module, at the conan-flake option reference — see also the Conan documentation for the configuration files those options render.
