    It is because it departs from POSIX that it is good; I recognize the syntax for some functionality is cumbersome and hard to remember though. There are similarities like command names and piping still…

    I use NixOS and home-manager, so for switching I just

      home-manager.users.yuu = {
        programs.nushell = {
          package = pkgs-update.nushell;
          enable = true;
          configFile.source = ../../config/nushell/config.nu;
          envFile.source = ../../config/nushell/env.nu;  
        };
      };
    

    The config.nu and env.nu is basically the default just with a customized prompt.

    Then in my alacritty.ylm I set shell to the nu binary

    shell:
      program: /etc/profiles/per-user/yuu/bin/nu
    

    Also learned from official resources https://www.nushell.sh/book. When I have doubts, I ask either on Nushell’s GitHub discussions or https://matrix.to/#/#nushell:matrix.org

    And to keep a POSIX shell

    {
      environment = {
        systemPackages = with pkgs; [
          mksh
        ];
    
        sessionVariables = rec {
          TERM = "alacritty";
          TERMINAL = "alacritty";
          SHELL = "${pkgs.mksh}/bin/mksh";
        };
    
      environment.shells = [
        "${pkgs.mksh}/bin/mksh"
      ];
    }
