And for cloud/dedicated servers perhaps https://github.com/nix-community/nixos-anywhere

(There's also a terraform module ) And for state changes https://github.com/serokell/deploy-rs Or Colmena /nixops/ and x other

For secret handling perhaps https://github.com/ryantm/agenix/ + https://github.com/oddlama/agenix-rekey

The ecosystem is in my experience very well fleshed out (7 yrs of use), as long as you don't require a knowledgebase/wiki/ up2date documentation, it's not been a issue for me since I could always fall back on Linux knowledge and just looking for how other distributions do x / how the thing itself is configured , and looking at how perhaps a existing nix module wraps that
