+# If you are using Nix as your package manager, you can run 'nix-shell .nix'
+# in the root directory of the project and Nix will open a bash shell
+# with all the packages needed to build and run Graphite installed.
+# A shell.nix file is used in the Nix ecosystem to define a development
+# environment with specific dependencies. When you enter a Nix shell using
+# this file, it ensures that all the specified tools and libraries are
+# available regardless of the host system's configuration. This provides
+# a reproducible development environment across different machines and developers.
+
+# You can enter the Nix shell and run Graphite like normal with:
+# > npm start
+# Or you can run it like this without needing to first enter the Nix shell:
+# > nix-shell .nix --command "npm start"
+
+# Uses flake compat to provide a development shell that is identical to the one defined in the flake
