 The tool nix-helper is installed by this configuration. It simplifies administrating nixos and adds more output to the rebuild command. It also features a diff after a successful build. The command uses the `NH_FLAKE` environment variable to be able to run from whatever directory.
 
 Basic commands with a set `NH_FLAKE` variable are:
