Nixhub.io – Find Specific Versions of Nix Packages

Search over 400,000 historical versions of nix packages on Nixhub.io. Find the Nix packages you need to get started on Devbox.

Nixhub.io – Find Specific Versions of Nix Packages launched on July 17, 2023 with 29 votes, #1,435 of 4,347 launches that month and more than 75% of that year's launches. The site was still online in September 2026, 3 years on.

In plain words

Nixhub.io is a search tool for locating specific versions of Nix packages. It helps developers and system administrators working with the Nix package manager find particular package versions they need. The service is designed for anyone using Nix who needs to track down historical or specific versions of software dependencies rather than just the latest releases.

    Hello! This is Edgar and Robbie and we built nix-snapshotter. nix-snapshotter brings native understanding of Nix packages to containerd. We built this because Nix is a great fit for making efficient containers. They don't need an OS because Nix captures all dependencies exactly. However, the current process of creating Nix images is subpar because one needs to transform Nix packages into a format that container runtimes understand. Using nix-snapshotter, instead of downloading image layers, packages come directly from the Nix store. Packages can be fetched from a binary cache or built on the…

    I saw this [0] pretty cool thread by user revskill, and wanted a quicker way to search through it, but also to keep them all in one place so I can read them at my leisure whenever I get time. Right now is like 60 lines of Ruby using Nokogiri, but I will certainly look into it further down the line and improve the list. There's a cronjob checking the thread every 12 hours but I will eventually shut that down and it will become static after that. There are some really awesome blogs in there. I really recommend going through the list, it made my day. [0] "Could you share your personal blog…
