Sorry if this is a stupid question Not only learning a new os but having to learn the tools to configure the os I was interested in trying nixos but i found it quite difficult to set up

I program a lot on my computer and i often need to install random c libraries and other crap.
Nixos can be simple & the most wonderful linux distribution to use, or it can be the most frustrating & difficult linux distribution to use
Although nixos is not necessarily hard. Nixos does things differently enough from other linuxes that problems can be difficult to understand or search for, and it can be harder to get help for problems. For me, nixos is worth it because it’s simply a more sensible way to manage a computer Are also amazing and beat anything available elsewhere.
Nixos is definitely good but not for newbies It takes no more effort to install a nixos distro than any other distro but figuring out how to add packages via the configuration.nix file and do basic configuration changes can be confusing It has enough of a package selection where i wasn't forced to use flatpak for anything. Nixos is an operating system built on the nix package manager, with nix being made first, and nixos a year after
Differences between nixos and guix
Does anyone have more recent insight into their differences? Nixos is good for gaming I just switched from mint, want to play some games, installed wine but it is unable to open any windows applications It's there any setup method if i want to play games on nixos?
What does that even mean Not to mention my nerd acquaintance keeps telling me to install nixos when i tell them i want to try some tiling window managers, usually people tell me to try and install arch All in all i want to know what exactly is nixos, what are the benifits, because the answers i get on internet are just gibberish to me. The reason its broken nixos is a declarative operating system
Therefore, you must create a systemd.services.<yourservice> entry in your configuration.nix to interact with the underlying system
Alternatively you can patch nixpkgs directly and. Nixos is a unique challenge for sure If this is your first linux distro and you're not a developer, it's basically trial by fire It reminds me of slackware linux about 20 years ago when everything was config files and i used vi for the first time
