To revolutionize store-based systems by creating a modern, user-friendly platform that combines innovative build scheduling, maintainable package management, and intelligent automation.

We will:

1. Pioneer the Atom format for reproducible, verifiable, and efficiently transferable package definitions
2. Develop a powerful, API-driven build scheduler that optimizes evaluation and caching
3. Create an intuitive CLI that makes store-based systems accessible and productive
4. Establish patterns and tools for maintaining large package sets through automation and static analysis
5. Build a modular ecosystem that enables seamless extension and adaptation

Our efforts preserve Nix's core strengths in reproducibility while dramatically improving:

• Developer experience through better tooling and APIs
• Package maintenance through automation and static guarantees
• System scalability through optimized scheduling and caching
• Code reuse through the Atom format and modular designs of ekapkgs

• eos: The evaluation & build scheduler gateway API binary
  • status: conceptual
• eka: The CLI, defining the core logic for the Atom format, and offering a truly high-level interface into the store based world of Nix like tools.
  • status: WIP private pre-alpha
  • license: GPLv3 with amendments
• atom: The novel Nix module system that enables bounded, sensible evaluation for Nix code.
  • status: WIP private beta
  • license: MPL
• EEP: Ekala Enhancement Proposals
  • status: open for submissions
• corepkgs: a minimal core of well maintain code, useful for maintaining a larger package set
• stdenv: the standard environment for Nix builds, abstracted to its own repository
• ekapkgs roadmap: A road-map listing out the milestones and goals to get to our ultimate goal
