Is your organization doing anything to ensure new devs are productive from day one? How do you guys handle local environments for the code you are working on? I am trying to get my company to enable teams to create their own workstation image that contains all the dev tools and local application-related infrastructure needed for that team to be productive. Has anyone done something similar?

We have a custom nix package each for the org, teams, down to the project level that a dev can use to bootstrap what they need from day one with a no-knowledge-about-nix installer.
