2022-08-04 | design -> architecture, add motivation | Valentin Gagarin | |
following ideas found in Architecture of Gazelle[1] [1]: https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel-gazelle/blob/56d35f8db086bb65ef876f96f7baa7b71516daf8/Design.rst | |||
2022-08-04 | remove separate meta-section, add architecture diagram | Valentin Gagarin | |
the diagram is a first approximation and only covers that same section. of course there is much more going on, and other features should at some point also be illustrated. we also have to think about presentation format and technicalities behind it. the manual has to render to `man`, but we may want something more refined for web view. | |||
2022-08-04 | Add draft "Rosetta stone" by @fricklerhandwerk and stub commentary | John Ericson | |
The idea and most of the execution are @fricklerhandwerk's. I changed a few things best I could based on @edolstra's corrections, and a Bazel glossary. Valentin Gagarin <valentin@fricklerhandwerk.de> | |||

2022-08-04 | WIP: Document the design of Nix | John Ericson | |
The current docs are all "how to do things" and no "what is Nix" or "why are things the way they are". I see lots of misconception on the wider internet, and I also think we would benefit from a "living document" to answer some questions people currently turn to the thesis for. I think a new section of the manual can address all these issues. | |||
