We have been experimenting with support for impure builders and have some prototypes, we’re excited to showcase these soon. These are of course just prototypes at this stage and we cannot commit to any guarantees about them being supported ( I hope they do though ).

As for integration with `lang2nix` tools like `dream2nix`, `floco`, `node2nix`, etc - it is currently possible to use these with `flox` but we currently lack “proper integration”. We’re working on a cleaner interface for using “regular” `nix` flakes and expressions with `flox` which will hopefully make this usage easier. For now I do have an example of using `floco` ( a `lang2nix` tool ) with `flox` in this thread which you may find useful: [Install nodejs package to env - #4 by aameen](https://discourse.flox.dev/t/install-nodejs-package-to-env/714/4)
