Happy to see more people interest in Nix. At the end of the post there are some links on learning resources, that list is 100% the best way to get started.

I'd also highly recommend reading at least the first two parts of the Nix author's PhD thesis: https://grosskurth.ca/bib/2006/dolstra-thesis.pdf

It really clearly explores the problem space Nix dives into. I learnt a lot about why Nix needs to exist.
