# A nix flake for building cubyz, (https://github.com/PixelGuys/Cubyz), 
#   an open source 3D voxel sandbox game.
# SERIOUS LIMITATION: cubyz uses their own custom patched zig compiler ୧(๑•̀ᗝ•́)૭
#   to build, you will need to do nix build --option sandbox false.
#   This is because the custom zig compiler looks for dynamically linked libraries
#   in an FHS environment. There are ways around this but I'm too lazy to solve for now.
# IMPORTANT NOTE: use `zon2nix` to generate a local deps.nix file with dependencies.
#   It may contain local files that don't exist on your computer, so just delete that
#   that dependency from the zon file.

Using feature flags for persons/bdp updates

As an alternative to branching, switching applications over to use persons v4 and BDPs can be cleanly cut over via feature flags:

Possible implementations

1. environment variables

Services being called are conditionally controlled with environment variables. Switching flags is as easy as updating a variable but requires a redeployment.
