Depending on your use case, devbox (https://github.com/jetpack-io/devbox) could be what you're looking for. It is powered by Nix, but abstracts the nix language away, so that you can use it like a "regular" package manager.

Currently it works on a "per-project" basis, but we're planning to add support to use it as your primary package manager for global installs as well.
