Make nushell a part of nix-nickels new shells ?

Just an idea here, writing it more for the purpose of discussing.
It seem nix nickel is trying to remake the basic nix building blocks with nickel.
Right now all of their shells are based on bash, could a continuation of this project live there ?

@happysalada It's certainly an intriguing concept! As far as I know, Nickel should be builder agnostic, so there's no reason in principle you couldn't build something new and bold out of Nickel and Nushell. I'm not closely acquainted with anyone on the project, though.

[happysalada]

yeah, that was just a thought.
Nickel isn't prime time ready, and when it is, including this will be just one PR away.
I think this is just something to reconsider in 6 months to a year.

I would love to see this and its more than 6 months in now! 😄

@ShalokShalom Unfortunately, I'm just not sure how such an integration would work and wouldn't have the bandwidth to push it forward at the moment. But I'll leave the issue open so that others may stumble on it 😄
