Nixpkgs replacements
Even though Nixpkgs is currently the standard package set for Nix and NixOS, it can be replaced by another with different conventions and/or functionality. An alternative package set may build upon certain aspects of Nixpkgs, but more often than not it serves a distinct purpose.
This is a list of Nixpkgs alternatives:
- Nixcrpkgs Focused on cross-compiling
- Triton - differences between Nixpkgs and Triton
- NixWRT Build Router images with nix, based on nixpkgs
