DESCRIPTION:Every project starts with a dev environment that works on your
  own machine. But the moment you try to share with a teammate\, anything c
 an (and does) happen. The first solution that most people try is container
 -based development\, but even though this solves the reproducibility probl
 em\, it's a horrible developer experience. Another solution that people tr
 y is a virtual environment (venv\, nvm\, rbenv)\, and they're great\, but 
 if you have a polyglot app things start getting cumbersome again (and none
  of these help you manage system dependencies).\n\nIn this talk\, we'll go
  over the tradeoffs between reproducibility and developer experience on an
  engineering team\, and talk about a third solution that the audience shou
 ld consider: Nix. Nix treats your dev environment as code\, all the way do
 wn to glibc. We'll show how `nix develop` can give you a development envir
 onment that's reproducible across operating systems and ecosystems\, while
  still giving you access to your development tools. But we'll also be hone
 st about the complexities of Nix\, as there are good reasons why not every
 one is using it today to manage their development environments.
