# Abstract
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The purpose of this folder is to allow some tools such as `react-native` to be installed globally through Nix instead of resorting to `npm install -g` (which is not allowed in a Nix environment). We get around that by using the [node2nix tool](https://github.com/svanderburg/node2nix).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Inputs
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The inputs are listed in `node-packages.json`.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Generating the nix expressions
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
``` shell
|
||
|
|
node2nix --nodejs-10 --bypass-cache -i node-packages.json
|
||
|
|
```
