Open source at the core

We build in the open. From the package manager that started it all to the tools that make Nix production-ready, our work is available for everyone.

Foundational

Where it all began

Our co-founder created Nix. We actively maintain it and push it forward.

Determinate stack

Tools we build and maintain

Open source projects we author and maintain to make Nix practical for teams.

  • Determinate Nix Installer

    The best way to install Nix. One command gets you a fully configured, flakes-enabled Determinate Nix on macOS or Linux, with macOS upgrade resilience and a safe and reliable uninstaller included.

  • Magic Nix Cache

    A free, zero-configuration GitHub Actions binary cache that typically cuts CI build times by 30-50%. No secrets, no setup, just dramatically faster builds from day one.

  • Zero to Nix

    A beginner-friendly learning resource for Nix and flakes. Opinionated, practical, and designed to get you productive with modern Nix as quickly as possible.

  • fh: the CLI for FlakeHub

    The command-line interface for FlakeHub. Initialize flakes, search for packages, add dependencies, and convert GitHub refs to semantic versions — all from the terminal.

  • Nix Flake Checker

    Help your Nix projects stay on recent and supported versions of Nixpkgs.

  • update-flake-lock Action

    A GitHub Action that automatically keeps your flake.lock up to date. Configure a schedule and update-flake-lock handles the rest, opening PRs whenever inputs have new versions available.
