I am still sceptical. What is the difference between "native understanding of nix packages" versus DIY putting your project derivation into dockerTools.buildImage? I dont see a killer selling point, just some middle ware with extra containerization features which also could be pulled into nixpkgs. But i have to admit, in my perception bubble VC gets more desperate and to them, the search metrices for nix must be shining like a christmas tree. I am certainly biased negatively. |

This is addressed in the readme FAQ. https://github.com/pdtpartners/nix-snapshotter#faq
If you're running Nix-based images on Kubernetes, seems like this tool has reduced overhead / storage compared to if you build an OCI/Docker image.
