Does it support specific programming languages?

Yes, it includes optimized configurations and templates for Python, Node.js, Go, Rust, Elm, and more, handling runtimes and versioning automatically.

How does this skill help with nix-shell migration?

It analyzes existing shell.nix or default.nix files and provides mapping patterns to convert buildInputs and shellHooks into devenv.nix equivalents, including package translation.

What are the benefits of using Devenv over standard Nix?

Devenv offers simpler service management, integrated process orchestration (devenv up), and 170+ built-in git-hooks that are significantly easier to configure than raw Nix expressions.

Can I manage databases like PostgreSQL with this skill?

Yes, it provides configuration patterns for services like PostgreSQL, Redis, and MySQL to run as managed, project-local processes with isolated data directories.

How do I find specific Devenv configuration options?

The skill includes specialized MCP tools like search_options and search_packages to query the latest Devenv documentation and Nixpkgs library in real-time.
