## Hunter's comment
Nix OS is a Linux distribution where the system is configured using a functional programming language called Nix. Some of the advantages of this include:
* easy to reproduce configs with options for many programs and services
* a config will always do the same thing wherever it is moved to (no environment differences)
* rollbacks of previous changes to configs, and old configs also appear in the boot-loader
* changes can be tested without committing to them, or in a virtual machine
* a source based package system with a cache so a specific package source only needs to be compiled once.
