Comment on Determinate Nix introduces a native Linux builder for macOS

Comments

It's a bit streamlined over the LnL7 Nix Docker solution I would be recommending yesterday.

On a Linux machine, if the development works, the container build will usually work. For MacOS users, they have to wonder a lot more, and you want them to be answer the question on their own, so it's important to have a Linux builder available for them.

Yeah! It also skips a lot of IO and other complicated bits, which hopefully pans out to being more reliable and performant!
