This article extends nixos.org/community for how to get in touch and lists additional platforms to meet community members.

See the Nix Community article to learn more about who we are.

Events

You can meet people at several Nix/NixOS Events.

Chats

Matrix

The official NixOS Community Space has rooms on many Nix topics.

Matrix Spaces are a beta feature, not supported by all clients or homeservers. If your client doesn't support spaces see MatrixRooms for a list of rooms.

IRC

There is a Nix presence on the Libera.Chat IRC network; the primary user channel is #nixos, and the development channel is #nixos-dev.

Previously, the Nix channels were on Freenode, a different IRC network. There are public logs from the Freenode versions of these channels. There is no logging set up on the Libera.Chat versions (yet).
