Comments

the requirements i had which led me to create i would love if other people wanted to use let me know if you're interested! |
good to hear. :) |
on another note, i'll admit i'm surprised to learn about your use-case. :) |
it's a good plan 👍 we have some high powered machines (all preconfigured to run rootless from there we deploy production to sounds like we share a couple ideas 😃 |
looks like a few people did do nixos using packer before:

the readme states teraflops 'relies on established software like colmena, terraform, and nixos-infect to provide all major functionality'.
now, while i'm not sure how that statement relates to zhaofengli/colmena#148, one piece of software i expected to hear mentioned in the same breath is
packer
