# Built-in Functions

This section lists the functions built into the Nix language evaluator.
All built-in functions are available through the global [`builtins`](./builtin-constants.md#builtins-builtins) constant.

For convenience, some built-ins can be accessed directly:

- [`derivation`](#builtins-derivation)
- [`import`](#builtins-import)
- [`abort`](#builtins-abort)
- [`throw`](#builtins-throw)
