Is the direnv integration custom or do you base it off of something? I use direnv extensively but I don't have it start any project daemons currently and I've been shipping scripts via devShell for managing them. I'd be very interested in this

We use nix-direnv mostly for the caching support and we use s6 as basically an init system but per project. Besides that it's all custom. We're looking to replace s6 with our own supervisor soon.

Edited to add, direnv just gets installed via `nix-env` but I wish it were using nix-darwin.

I'll probably get to write a blog post about this in a couple months.

Why? Anything of interest to other Nix users here?

People who are writing software in Nix-based dev envs would be interested in what we're working on, but the featureset is tightly bound to resource limitations and needs, so I can't really say any more without making promises I might not be able to keep, and I would feel bad badmouthing s6 if I couldn't do any better myself.
