Hi :) 


What you describe is a known reality (see https://issues.guix.gnu.org/37940). As Mark indicates in that report, you can work around the issue by using manifests.

For instance, to work on your Application project, you can do more or less something like this:

$ cd my-app
$ guix shell -m manifest.scm
$ RUN_YOUR_APP

That way Guix will create an augmented environment with all the packages listed in the manifest.scm file, where you can develop your application.

I have a real example if you would like to try: https://gitlab.com/luis-felipe/geteka

Hope that helps,
