Create a temporary shell environment containing specified applications.
- Install Nix (learn more about this installer)
curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf \
-L https://install.determinate.systems/nix \
| sh -s -- install- Install app-shell
nix profile install github:imincik/app-shell#app-shell- Create shell containing QGIS and GDAL apps
app-shell --apps qgis,gdal- Add Python with some modules as well
app-shell --apps qgis,gdal,python3 --python-packages python3Packages.numpy,python3Packages.pyproj- Finally, launch QGIS on start
app-shell --apps qgis,gdal,python3 --python-packages python3Packages.numpy,python3Packages.pyproj -- qgis- Or maybe, compile some software
// test.c
#include <stdio.h>
#include <curl/curl.h>
int main() {
CURL *curl;
curl = curl_easy_init();

It works !- Run

nix-shell was originally designed to provide a debugging environment for Nix derivations. It does a lot of magic and populates the environment with a lot of unnecessary content (packages, shell environment variables and functions).
app-shell is much more simple, cleaner and lighter. It only fetches required
packages to the /nix/store and propagates them via relevant
environment variables.
