+== Global Tools ==
+There is currently no mechanism to install them globally, and regular (mutable) installation [does not work](https://github.com/dotnet/sdk/issues/30546).
+[Here](https://github.com/WhiteBlackGoose/dotfiles/blob/3f7d1b508f75ea87b8f36f3e2be0e2db1f4241c1/envs/dotnet-tool.nix) is a proof of concept of how .NET tools could be used declaratively.
+Here's an example of using that package:
+<syntaxHighlight lang=nix>
+packages =
+  let dotnetPkg =
+    (with dotnetCorePackages; combinePackages [
+      sdk_7_0
+      sdk_6_0
+    ]);
+    dotnetTools = (callPackage ./dotnet-tool.nix {});     # dotnet-tool.nix is the file from the link above
+  in [
+    vim
+    firefox
+    dotnetPkg
+    dotnetTools.combineTools dotnetPkg (with dotnetTools.tools; [
+                          #  ^^^^^^^^^ here we specify the dotnet package
+                          # that will be invoked for this tool
+                          # Ideally, something like dotnetPkg.withTools
+                          # should be there
+      fsautocomplete                                      # these are tools from dotnetTools.tools;
+      csharp-ls                                           # if a package is missing, it can be declared
+      dotnet-repl                                         # manually, see the sources of dotnet-tools.nix
+    ])
+  ];
