+# Examples
+
+* Apply the build environment of GNU hello to the current shell:
+
+ ```console
+ # . <(nix print-dev-env nixpkgs#hello)
+ ```
+
+# Description
+
+This command prints a shell script that can be sourced by `b`ash and
+that sets the environment variables and shell functions defined by the
+build process of *installable*. This allows you to get a similar build
+environment in your current shell rather than in a subshell (as with
+`nix develop`).
