Hi, this looks awesome, thank you for exploring Nix capabilities, that is a great piece of software.

I am curious, what drives you using docker if images can be broken down into Nix packages?

Don’t get me wrong, the project looks really cool, and it’s a bit of a hassle to write orchestration using NixOS configuration utilising systemd.

The focus here is on Docker Compose projects rather than container images. If Compose works for you, why go through the hassle of packaging the app natively?
