How do you separate Nix programs from the rest of the system?
It creates a set of symlinks so every program sees exactly the dependencies it needs.

You can also create a container:

Or you can create reproducible docker containers with nix:

The secret sauce with nix is reproducibility. If it builds once, it will continue building exactly like that forever. Bit by bit.
That's very interesting, I was aware of how NixOS separated dependency versions but I didn't know it natively supported containers.
