Show HN: Nixhub.io – Find Specific Versions of Nix Packages

Cool bonus feature of Nixhub.io I wanted to share -- Package pages are linkable&#x2F;bookmarkable!<p>So if you want to view all the versions available for NodeJS, you can visit <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;nixhub.io&#x2F;packages&#x2F;nodejs" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;nixhub.io&#x2F;packages&#x2F;nodejs</a><p>You can even link to a specific version with an anchor link. For example, you can see NodeJS 19.8.0 at <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;nixhub.io&#x2F;packages&#x2F;nodejs#19.8.0" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;nixhub.io&#x2F;packages&#x2F;nodejs#19.8.0</a>

I&#x27;ve never used nixos so excuse this question: What is the difference between nixhub and the package search on <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;search.nixos.org&#x2F;packages" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;search.nixos.org&#x2F;packages</a> ?

Some fuzzy search as you type magic on the package search box would be a nice feature. Are you making money off of this?

I am currently using asdf, is there anything Nix does better than asdf?

Ok, as a nix noob. I find a given package, say `nixpkgs&#x2F;3276b62e6639096014652132f4824ac2b4f2a2c4#nodejs`<p>Then what? How do I throw that in a configuration.nix or flake.nix file?

That&#x27;s pretty sweet! Is the code open source? I&#x27;d love to see how it works.
