nova-nix: Windows-native Nix implementation in pure Haskell
A pure Haskell implementation of the Nix package manager that runs natively on Windows — no WSL, no MSYS2, no Cygwin required. Evaluates .nix files, builds derivations, manages a content-addressed store, and substitutes pre-built binaries from remote caches (nova-cache, cache.nixos.org).
Built on top of nova-cache for NAR serialization, narinfo handling,
Ed25519 signing, and binary substitution.
