nix3-develop

Run a bash shell that provides the build environment of a derivation.

TLDR

Start a shell with all dependencies of a package from nixpkgs available

$ nix develop [nixpkgs#pkg]
copy


Start a development shell for the default package in a flake in the current directory
$ nix develop
copy


In that shell, configure and build the sources
$ configurePhase; buildPhase
copy
