nix shell w/ npins by phanirithvij · Pull Request #772 · processing/processing-android

Thanks for the clarification, @phanirithvij!

I tried running the Nix setup on macOS (ARM), but I ran into issues (log on pastebin)

I tried to set NIXPKGS_ALLOW_UNSUPPORTED_SYSTEM=1, NIXPKGS_ALLOW_UNFREE=1, dirty patch the shell.nix file with ChatGPT, and run nix-shell --impure to get things moving, but the build still failed with some platform-specific issues. It doesn't help that I have no idea what I'm doing 🙃

Any guidance on how to adjust the Nix shell for macOS with Apple Silicon compatibility would be super helpful! It seems like this setup could be great for easing the environment setup for new contributors, but right now, I’m struggling to get it working on my M1 mac.

Thanks again for your efforts!
