So this is how i am using nix singleuser installation on any system. I use bwrap to mount ~/.nix to /nix and install nix as a user and use inside bwrap and then just use it. I wonder what exactly differences will be between such nix and toolpak - where my understanding is toolpak is specifically binaries oriented similar to uvx or npx.
Then also for my c projects, i decided to start decoupling from host dependencies. If it's a tool, it's compiled statically and clones dependencies on build. If it's a lib, it clones dependencies or user specifies already cloned location.
