  • Kubernetes GitOps with nix and Argo CD, termed 'Nix CD', allows managing a Kubernetes cluster declaratively using Nix language.
  • Key features include declarative cluster management, NixOS-like experience, GitOps readiness, strongly-typed configuration, and simplified multi-environment management.
  • Nixidy generates plain YAML manifests for Argo CD, aligning with the Rendered Manifests Pattern, and supports Helm & Kustomize integration.
  • The tool leverages NixOS' module system for Kubernetes configurations, avoiding Helm's string templating and Kustomize's repetition.
  • Special thanks to projects like nix-kube-generators and kubenix for their contributions to nixidy's development.
  • Contributions to nixidy are welcome, including bug reports, feature requests, and code contributions, under the MIT License.
