Using Package Channels in GNU Guix - Craft Your System with Guix #4
System Crafters
You can also watch this video on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xVyvz2aViP8
In this video, I'll show you how you can use additional package channels to find software and drivers that you can't get in the main Guix repository! I'll also show you how you can lock your channel configuration to specific commits so that you can easily replicate your exact software configuration across multiple machines. We'll also cover a few package channels that you might want to use!
