I noticed that helix does it: https://github.com/helix-editor/helix/blob/master/flake.nix#L176 and wanted to try it. There are some problems with it though: * It asks on `nix develop` if you want use these settings and if you want to remember them. Not a problem on it's own but ... * If you are using `direnv` it will just get stuck, as direnv doesn't allow stdin from the subcommands it starts (or something like that). You have to ctrl+c it, and then run `nix develop` manually and make it remember settings. Papercut. * On my system I get `warning: ignoring untrusted substituter 'https://fedimint.cachix.org'` and I'm not sure what is wrong.

There was a problem hiding this comment.
Worked for me, I like the idea (and think I actually had it in a PR of mine once :P).
There's a potential problem I read about on the nix-bitcoin matrix channel that apparently rocksdb might build with all the supported CPU features of the build host and then not work on other machines.
Proceed if you think it's a good trade-off.
