Does it cache dependency crates to nix store? Does it result to speed-up in builds?

domenkozar · 44m ago

Yes, it does vendor all the crates to Nix store.

It results into speed up in a way that if your application doesn't change, you'll just get the binary package.

That's why the two interfaces are exposed: one for development feedback cycle and one for distribution.

how does it compare with the devbox project

domenkozar · 43m ago

We're aiming to take Nix to its most simple form, while devbox uses json for configuration.

Think of devenv as systemd of developer environments.
