my #lixcon2026 talk about build system yuri has been released: https://media.ccc.de/v/lixcon-2026-2-nix-and-buck2-from-enemies-to-lovers-with-snowydeer slides: https://jade.fyi/lixcon2026 we build #nix store paths entirely outside of nix using deps from nix, then re-import them (with correct deps!) into nix once built. this powers writing a docker image in 6 lines of code without devs touching nix language at all. you can use a new parameter in #lix 2.95's CLI to import store paths built by other build systems like we're doing, using `nix store add-path --references-list-json`. happy yuri!
