<h3>Contributing to NixOS</h3>
<div class="row-fluid">
<div class="span8">
<p>It’s pretty easy to modify NixOS. All you need to do is get a copy
of the Nixpkgs repository (which contains the NixOS sources as
well):</p>

<pre>
<span class="nix-command">git clone git://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs.git</span>
</pre>

<p>After making modifications to the sources, you can use them as
follows:</p>

<pre>
<span class="nix-command">nixos-rebuild switch -I nixpkgs=/path/to/my/nixpkgs</span>
</pre>

<h2>Acknowledgments</h2>

<p>The Nix package manager was developed by <a
href="https://nixos.org/~eelco/">Eelco Dolstra</a> as
part of his PhD research in the <a
href="http://www.cs.uu.nl/wiki/Trace/WebHome">TraCE project</a>,
funded by the <a href="http://www.jacquard.nl/">Jacquard programme</a>
of the <a href="http://www.nwo.nl/">Netherlands Organisation for
Scientific Research</a> (NWO) and <a
href="http://www.serc.nl/">SERC</a>. The first prototype of NixOS was
developed by <a href="http://www.tjaldur.nl/">Armijn Hemel</a> as
his master’s thesis project. Hydra, the Nix-based continuous build
system, was developed as part of the LaQuSo Buildfarm project, funded
by <a href="https://www.4tu.nl/nirict/">NIRICT</a> / <a
href="http://www.laquso.com/">LaQuSo</a>.</p>

<p>The NixOS community has been supported by various companies and institutes over
the years, for which we are very grateful. The following companies and institutes have
supported the development of NixOS and the infrastructure that is needed to support it.
