Can anyone steer me to any others? The definitive and most up-to-date documentation on Guix (both the package manager and the OS built around it) is the Guix Info Pages. On any machine with Guix (and the "info" command installed), simply type this at your terminal (don't type the dollar sign): $ info guix Then read away to your heart's content.
