Nix wrote half of my debugger

Author Fazlul Zakaria wrote half of his debugger using the Nix package manager, describing it as a 'wild success' in terms of speed and reproducibility. Zakaria used Nix to manage dependencies and isolate the build process, resulting in a 3-4 times speedup. He also used Nix to create a reproducible build environment, which allowed him to quickly identify and fix bugs.
