Learning Nix is a rough but pretty efficient way to learn about building and running software, dependencies and packaging. Rough, cause if you don't know much about it before you start using #Nix or #NixOS, it's pretty overwhelming - like in "I get it, there are different ways to do the same thing, that's cool and all, but what if I don't have enough experience to make an informed choice?" - but efficient if you stick to (& dedicate enough time to) it, cause you'll HAVE to learn those.
Marksman is a program that allow various text editors to improve the #Markdown experience: "it provides completion, goto definition, find references, rename refactoring, diagnostics, and more". I I installed Marksman under :nixos: (it's in nixpkgs). Kate detected it right away without needing to disconnect & reconnect the user session. Now I can, say, open my Logseq folder in Kate, and navigate or preview files using [[Wiki-links]]. Pretty cool. #NixOS #KateEditor
