I started from using asdf [1] for managing golang, python and node. My main language is golang but often I need to run project from other language and different version especially python with packages have different version needed from pip i.e python 3.6 and python 3.8
I found about nix and it looks a good fit for my usecase because it not messing with PATH and not spawning container like docker but when I try to use it, I feel overwhelmed by it.
I use devbox now because it's easy to use but definitely will try flox. I welcome any tools that can help reduce nix complexity.
