How is it more pleasant than the others? I've used make and nix, but not extensively. They seemed fine. Make seemed extremely powerful if a little rough on the edges at times. Nix was not super intuitive and I was never content with it before leaving it behind. That was probably a me-problem, because I could tell it was very capable and designed well in some ways.

I came from dealing with various node / ruby / python versions across multiple projects where I used nvim / rbenv and some python manager. Miss is nice as you can just switch to it and not relearn anything, it just works with the old configs.

I haven’t tried make with our setup but nix was too much of a hassle. Especially when some projects required old versions of libraries across dev (macOS) and staging/prod for various Linux OS.
