Project Summary

GNU Guix is a purely functional package manager for the GNU system, and a distribution thereof.

Dependable. In addition to standard package management features, Guix supports transactional upgrades and roll-backs, unprivileged package management, per-user profiles, and garbage collection.

Hackable. It provides Guile Scheme APIs, including high-level embedded domain-specific languages (EDSLs), to describe how packages and operating systems are built and composed.

Liberating. A user-land free software distribution for GNU/Linux comes as part of Guix.

Guix is derived from the Nix package manager.
