#PlanetNix 2026 throwback!
Kelsey Hightower on discovering #Nix and realizing there was a fundamentally different way to think about software.

“Feels like everyone just wants to solve problems together.”
One of the best parts of #PlanetNix this year? The community.
Captured a bit of that vibe along with a few favorite moments and talks from the event.
And a little throwback to our after party, good times! 💜

#PlanetNix 2026 throwback!
Nix isn’t niche anymore. It’s already being used by teams and companies that care about #reproducibility, control, and getting their environments right.
Flox gives teams a way to use #Nix in real workflows, without needing to understand every layer underneath from day one.

From Unsustainable to Efficient: Runtime Package Layering Breaks the Container Bloat Cycle by Priya Ananthasankar 💫

Okay, first problem with Flox: there doesn't seem to be an easy / generic way to install it 😅
The install docs (https://flox.dev/docs/install-flox/install/) have links to DEB and RPM packages, as well as instructions for Nix; but I'm on another distro... I suppose step 1 would be to install Nix? 🤔
(Instructions unclear; got my nix stuck in GPU fans)

Next talk at #scale23x, we're moving to #planetnix, with "You Know Nix. Your Team Doesn't. Now What?" by Rok Garbas.
IOW, how to usr #Flox to evangelize #Nix / help your coworkers to get on board with Nix but with a gentler learning curve.

#PlanetNix 2026 wouldn’t be possible without our incredible Planetary Partners 💙
Huge thank you to Flox, PDT Partners, ExpressVPN, Southern California Nix User Group, Anthropic and Numtide.
Your support helps us bring the #Nix community together for two days of learning, building, and real conversations about reproducibility, security, and the future of the SDLC.
See you on Thursday!

We’re excited to have our own Morgan Helton from Flox joining the #PlanetNix stage!
🚀 Talk: From Nix to Kubernetes: No Image Layover
This talk explores how to deploy workloads on #Kubernetes using Nix without going through conventional OCI image builds. We'll start with a quick look at how containerd actually creates a container—interpreting metadata, preparing a rootfs, assembling a runtime spec.
#PlanetNix 2026 is happening next week!

Michael Stahnke, VP of Engineering at Flox, joins the #PlanetNix lineup!
On paper, AI/ML stacks scream for Nix. “It runs” meaning “It runs… on this machine.”
In ML, reproducibility isn’t optional. It’s a must.So why hasn’t Nix become the default?
This talk is a field guide to making Nix real in AI environments because at the core is a simple question: Why do we ship what we ship the way we ship it?
Join us next week: https://planetnix.com/

Flox 101 Workshop at #PlanetNix: You Know Nix. Your Team Doesn’t. Now What?
You’ve learned Nix and you see the power 👉 Deterministic builds, reproducibility, no more “works on my machine.”
And then you get to work… Back to `apt`, `homebrew`, and manual setup docs. Your teammates don’t have time to learn Nix, even if they want the benefits. This workshop is about what to do next!
