[–] ladyanita22@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago (1 child) I suggest you check Silverblue + Ansible (or CoreOS/IoT for server stuff). permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Neon@lemmy.world 1 point 2 years ago* while i think that ansible is really cool, it's not the same as Nix. correct me if i'm wrong, but afaik Ansible just modifies the current state of the System with a declarative configuration. Nix reverts your system back to install and then applies the configuration. The result is that in Nix if i remove something from the configuration.nix it is as if it never existed, whereas on Ansible it stays unless i manually run a task to uninstall it. permalink fedilink source parent
