Hello Emacs Community!,

I’m a long time Emacs user, right now using the Doom framework and, I recently took a look at the power Nix, specifically the devenv.sh project. I wonder if someone is using it in some manner. As it being quite powerful and allowing having separate development environments.

Are there any packages for this?, and if not, how complicated would it to be to for example, once entering a project, Emacs gets all of its PATHs (languages like NodeJS and other niceties) so that little by little, the project can be replicated and used completely with devenv and Emacs without having to installing anything globally.

Thank you, I would love to hear your workflows!, just wanting to be sure I’m getting the best of the best in my environment, I will be coding in Javascript, Angular and so on.

  1. use direnv so your environment is set up when you cd into the directory
  2. launch emacs from that shell and do all your development work there
