This article lists applications built for and with Nix; it constitutes a listing of what may be called the Extended Nix Ecosystem (see Nix Ecosystem for the Core Nix Ecosystem).
If you are looking for Linux software/applications you should look at Software or its sub-article Applications.
Non-NixOS Distributions
Various applications built on top of Nix:
- not-os - build a system firmware for embedded devices
Built with Nix
Projects which leverage Nix.
- styx - Static site generator in Nix expression language
- bionix - manage and execute bioinformatics pipelines
- ethereum.nix - A collection of Nix packages and NixOS modules designed to make it easier to operate Ethereum related services and infrastructure
- nixos-mailserver - A complete and Simple NixOS Mailserver
Nix Platform
Projects which add support (e.g. for extra platforms or major capabilities) to Nix.
- nix-darwin - NixOS modules for Darwin
- musnix - real-time audio modules for NixOS
- nixGl - A wrapper to run OpenGL applications outside of NixOS
Nix Tooling
Various tools built for working with the Nix Ecosystem (e.g. enhancements or alternatives to core Nix tools).
General configuration
- home-manager - System for managing a user environment using Nix
- plasma-manager - manage KDE Plasma with Home-manager
About

- nix-user-chroot - install Nix as an unpriviliged user on any system
- nh - a rewrite of nixos-rebuild featuring diffs with nvd and a tree of builds with nix-output-manager, as well as other quality of life features such as package searching.
Nix Operations
Operations tools for the Nix Ecosystem:
Official
- Hydra - Nix's official continuous integration and build system.
