You should have a look on this: https://github.com/nilcons/ceh We support installing Nix in an easy way on top of modern mainstream linux distros (ubuntu, fedora, debian, nixos). And we have "user environments" in git, kind of. If you have specific questions about how stuff works or you find some issues while you're trying it out, please come back to us! We use this setup at our own startup for almost a year now (mainly for Haskell developing environment) and stuff works great, I wanted to announce this properly on this mailing list, but didn't find the time yet.
