Makes it easy to manage devtools, libraries, runtimes without conflicts. Handles dependency management for any installed packages. Easy to share environments with other people. Environments can be defined declaratively in a config file. ### Tradeoffs Uses Nix behind the scenes which is both great (declarative language for package management), but also quite complex to understand if you want to build your own packages.
