Along with the default Guix packages, you can use your own packages. Basically, you can do it like this: at first, make some "/path/to/my-guix-packages.scm" file with your packages, then add "/path/to" directory to GUIX_PACKAGE_PATH environment variable. Then "guix" commands should find your packages automatically. Also look at the manual: https://www.gnu.org/software/guix/manual/html_node/Package-Modules.html#Package-Modules -- Alex
