vitalpkgs - A Flake Providing Collection of Customized Nix Packages

This repostiroy hosts a collection of packages that are not (yet) found in nixpkgs. They are not in the upstream for several reasons:

1. The package has really small user group which does not justify the resources we pay by hosting on nixpkgs.
2. The package is not up-to-date on nixpkgs, though will likely be updated either by us or someone else.
3. The package needs some customization to work with nixvital powered NixOS machines.
4. The original software is written by us and it tends to serve only specific purposes. This is similar to No. 1.

This repo will be constantly maintained, and packages will be added and removed based on the above reasons as well.

Usage

This is designed as a Nix Flake so that you can easily include it in your projects. Specifically it provides

1. An overlay that has all the packages.
2. You can also access (build, inspect, ...) a single package under packages.<system>.<package-name>.
