I just started using Flox last weekend and so far it has been quite nice experience. There are two things I don't like, though:

1) The Homebrew package is a cask that installs also Nix. While I like Flox, I don't want my systems to be married to it. Yes, I know about install option with "generic Nix", but I'm using Homebrew with Brewfile both in macOS and Linux, and I would like the Homebrew package to be just Flox.

2) Documentation is OK for getting started, but not for anything more than that. There are nice manifest.toml examples for many use cases in floxenvs[1] but you need to find those first. Also I'm not sure how I feel about inline shell scripts in toml. While it works, separate files would be easier to handle, at least for me.

There’s a small number of us working on the docs and we actually just did a pass over them before the holidays to evaluate how well they help users get things done. We took some action items from that that we’ll be working in over the next few months.

That said, the repo is public[1] and if there’s specific things you’d like to see or would find helpful you could open an issue. That would be really helpful, but there’s obviously no obligation to do so.
