I've been experimenting with @flox.dev for a project and its really nice! I've wanted to get into #nixos for a while and Flox simplifies Nix significantly. Next will be using it to replace homebrew for everything except casks. I'll probably also look to use it for a project at work. I'm sold!

In addition to the official docs these couple of videos helped me understand both Nix and Flox. Nix explained from the ground up: youtu.be/5D3nUU1OVx8?... Layering Up: Composable environments with flox: youtu.be/8TROzHJbgJY?...

The only minor issue I am having with using @flox.dev to replace homebrew is that I have to reactivate my default environment each time I install a new tool.
Is it possible this is zsh's hash cache? Can confirm with `hash -r`, `rehash`, or `setopt nohashcmds`, `setopt nohashdirs`. If that is the issue, we should already be setting this for you on the first activation. Can you confirm this is the issue you see? Ref: zsh.sourceforge.io/Doc/Release/...
